Translation

Překlad

A vānaprastha should prepare a thatched cottage or take shelter of a cave in a mountain only to keep the sacred fire, but he should personally practice enduring snowfall, wind, fire, rain and the shining of the sun.

Má si postavit chatrč ze slámy nebo se uchýlit do jeskyně v hoře jen proto, aby udržoval posvátný oheň, ale sám se má učit odolávat sněhu, větru, ohni, dešti i žáru slunce.
