1. Bhṛgu said: Indeed, forest-dwellers (vānaprasthas), following the ascetic discipline (dharma) of sages, wander about, performing austerities (tapas) in very solitary forests—which are frequented by deer, buffaloes, boars, śṛmaras, and elephants—as well as in sacred pilgrimage places and river springs. They have forsaken the enjoyment of village clothes and food, their varied and regulated diets consisting solely of wild herbs, roots, fruits, and leaves. They observe specific vows of standing or sitting, and sleep on the ground, on stones, sand, gravel, pebbles, or ashes. Their bodies are clad in kasha grass, kuśa grass, animal hides, or bark, and they refrain from cutting their hair, beards, nails, or body hair. They perform ritual ablutions at prescribed times and diligently carry out the appointed sacrifices and offerings. They find their repose in the sacred acts of offering and purification with sacrificial twigs, kuśa grass, and flowers. Their entire skin is scorched and cracked by exposure to cold, heat, and wind. Their flesh and blood are depleted by the performance of their natural law (dharma), mandated by various vows and ascetic practices (yoga). Having become mere skin and bones, they sustain their bodies solely through profound fortitude and the power of their inner strength.
यस्त्वेतां नियतश्चर्यां ब्रह्मर्षिविहितां चरेत् ।
स दहेदग्निवद्दोषाञ्जयेल्लोकांश्च दुर्जयान् ॥२॥
2. yastvetāṁ niyataścaryāṁ brahmarṣivihitāṁ caret ,
sa dahedagnivaddoṣāñjayellokāṁśca durjayān.
2. yaḥ tu etām niyatām caryām brahmarṣivihitām caret
sa dahet agnivat doṣān jayet lokān ca durjayān
2. yaḥ tu etām brahmarṣivihitām niyatām caryām caret,
sa agnivat doṣān dahet ca durjayān lokān jayet.
2. Indeed, whoever observes this disciplined conduct, which has been ordained by the Brahmarṣis (Brahmin sages), will burn away his imperfections as if with fire and conquer even those realms that are otherwise unconquerable.

3. Now, the prescribed conduct for wandering ascetics (parivrājakas) is as follows: They abandon their attachments to the sacred fire, wealth, wife, and household possessions. Shaking off the emotional bonds of the self (ātman), they wander forth. For them, clods of earth, stones, and gold are all of equal value. Their intellects remain unattached to undertakings motivated by the three aims of human life (dharma, artha, and kama). They maintain an equal disposition towards enemies, friends, and neutral persons. They refrain from harming any beings—whether immobile or born from wombs, eggs, sweat, or vegetation—through word, thought, or action. Without a fixed abode, they frequent mountains, riverbanks, tree roots, and temples. For temporary shelter, they may enter a city or a village, staying five nights in a city and only one night in a village. They should approach the homes of "twice-born" (dvija) individuals whose actions are pure, accepting alms that fall into their bowl without soliciting them, solely for the purpose of sustaining life. They are completely free from desire, anger, pride, delusion, greed, wretchedness, hypocrisy, slander, conceit, and violence.

4. And regarding this, there is the following verse.
कृत्वाग्निहोत्रं स्वशरीरसंस्थं शारीरमग्निं स्वमुखे जुहोति ।
यो भैक्षचर्योपगतैर्हविर्भिश्चिताग्निनां स व्यतियाति लोकान् ॥५॥
5. kṛtvāgnihotraṁ svaśarīrasaṁsthaṁ; śārīramagniṁ svamukhe juhoti ,
yo bhaikṣacaryopagatairhavirbhi;ścitāgnināṁ sa vyatiyāti lokān.
5. kṛtvā agnihotram sva-śarīra-saṃstham
śārīram agnim sva-mukhe juhoti
yaḥ bhaikṣa-caryā-upagataiḥ havirbhiḥ
cita-agninām saḥ vyatiyāti lokān
5. yaḥ sva-śarīra-saṃstham agnihotram kṛtvā śārīram agnim sva-mukhe havirbhiḥ bhaikṣa-caryā-upagataiḥ juhoti,
saḥ cita-agninām lokān vyatiyāti
5. The ascetic who performs the fire ritual (agnihotra) that is established within his own body, and offers (food) into his own mouth—this bodily fire (agni) being his offering—using alms obtained through begging; he (such a person) surpasses the realms attained by those who maintain ritual fires.
मोक्षाश्रमं यः कुरुते यथोक्तं शुचिः सुसंकल्पितबुद्धियुक्तः ।
अनिन्धनं ज्योतिरिव प्रशान्तं स ब्रह्मलोकं श्रयते द्विजातिः ॥६॥
6. mokṣāśramaṁ yaḥ kurute yathoktaṁ; śuciḥ susaṁkalpitabuddhiyuktaḥ ,
anindhanaṁ jyotiriva praśāntaṁ; sa brahmalokaṁ śrayate dvijātiḥ.
6. mokṣa-āśramam yaḥ kurute yathā-uktam
śuciḥ su-saṅkalpita-buddhi-yuktaḥ
a-nindhanam jyotiḥ iva praśāntam
saḥ brahma-lokam śrayate dvijātiḥ
6. yaḥ śuciḥ su-saṅkalpita-buddhi-yuktaḥ yathā-uktam mokṣa-āśramam kurute,
saḥ dvijātiḥ a-nindhanam praśāntam jyotiḥ iva brahma-lokam śrayate
6. That twice-born (dvija) individual who observes the stage of life dedicated to liberation (mokṣa) as prescribed, who is pure and endowed with a firmly resolved intellect—such a one attains the world of Brahman, becoming tranquil like a flame that is without fuel and has therefore quieted.
भरद्वाज उवाच ।

7. bharadvāja uvāca ,

7. bharadvāja uvāca asmāt lokāt paraḥ lokaḥ śrūyate na

7. bharadvāja uvāca asmāt lokāt paraḥ lokaḥ śrūyate na
upalabhyate aham tam jñātum icchāmi tat bhavān vaktum arhati
7. Bharadvāja said: "A world beyond this one is spoken of, yet it is not perceived. I wish to know about it, and you, venerable sir, are able to explain it."
भृगुरुवाच ।
उत्तरे हिमवत्पार्श्वे पुण्ये सर्वगुणान्विते ।

8. bhṛguruvāca ,

8. bhṛgu uvāca uttare himavat-pārśve puṇye sarva-guṇa-anvite

8. bhṛgu uvāca sa varaḥ lokaḥ uttare himavat-pārśve puṇye
sarva-guṇa-anvite puṇyaḥ kṣemyaḥ ca kāmyaḥ ca ucyate
8. Bhṛgu said: "That supreme world is said to be situated on the northern side of the Himalayas, a sacred place endowed with all virtues, auspicious, and delightful."
तत्र ह्यपापकर्माणः शुचयोऽत्यन्तनिर्मलाः ।
लोभमोहपरित्यक्ता मानवा निरुपद्रवाः ॥९॥
9. tatra hyapāpakarmāṇaḥ śucayo'tyantanirmalāḥ ,
lobhamohaparityaktā mānavā nirupadravāḥ.
9. tatra hi apāpa-karmāṇaḥ śucayaḥ atyanta-nirmalāḥ
lobha-moha-parityaktāḥ mānavāḥ nirupadravāḥ
9. tatra hi mānavāḥ apāpa-karmāṇaḥ śucayaḥ
atyanta-nirmalāḥ lobha-moha-parityaktāḥ nirupadravāḥ
9. Indeed, in that place reside people whose actions are blameless, who are pure and utterly spotless, free from greed and delusion, and undisturbed by any afflictions.
स स्वर्गसदृशो देशस्तत्र ह्युक्ताः शुभा गुणाः ।
काले मृत्युः प्रभवति स्पृशन्ति व्याधयो न च ॥१०॥
10. sa svargasadṛśo deśastatra hyuktāḥ śubhā guṇāḥ ,
kāle mṛtyuḥ prabhavati spṛśanti vyādhayo na ca.
10. sa svarga-sadṛśaḥ deśaḥ tatra hi uktāḥ śubhāḥ guṇāḥ
kāle mṛtyuḥ prabhavati spṛśanti vyādhayaḥ na ca
10. sa deśaḥ svarga-sadṛśaḥ tatra hi śubhāḥ guṇāḥ uktāḥ
mṛtyuḥ kāle prabhavati ca vyādhayaḥ na spṛśanti
10. That region is comparable to heaven; indeed, auspicious qualities are manifested there. Death occurs only at its appointed time, and diseases do not affect (the inhabitants).
न लोभः परदारेषु स्वदारनिरतो जनः ।
न चान्योन्यवधस्तत्र द्रव्येषु न च विस्मयः ।
परोक्षधर्मो नैवास्ति संदेहो नापि जायते ॥११॥
11. na lobhaḥ paradāreṣu svadāranirato janaḥ ,
na cānyonyavadhastatra dravyeṣu na ca vismayaḥ ,
parokṣadharmo naivāsti saṁdeho nāpi jāyate.
11. na lobhaḥ paradāreṣu svadāranirataḥ
janaḥ na ca anyonyavadhaḥ tatra
dravyeṣu na ca vismayaḥ parokṣadharmaḥ
na eva asti saṃdehaḥ na api jāyate
11. janaḥ svadāranirataḥ na lobhaḥ
paradāreṣu ca tatra anyonyavadhaḥ na ca
dravyeṣu vismayaḥ na parokṣadharmaḥ
na eva asti saṃdehaḥ na api jāyate
11. There is no greed concerning the wives of others; people are devoted to their own wives. There is no mutual killing there, nor is there astonishment or envy regarding possessions. There is no hidden (dharma) or obscure moral law (dharma), and no doubt (saṃdeha) ever arises.
कृतस्य तु फलं तत्र प्रत्यक्षमुपलभ्यते ।
शय्यायानासनोपेताः प्रासादभवनाश्रयाः ।
सर्वकामैर्वृताः केचिद्धेमाभरणभूषिताः ॥१२॥
12. kṛtasya tu phalaṁ tatra pratyakṣamupalabhyate ,
śayyāyānāsanopetāḥ prāsādabhavanāśrayāḥ ,
sarvakāmairvṛtāḥ keciddhemābharaṇabhūṣitāḥ.
12. kṛtasya tu phalam tatra pratyakṣam
upalabhyate śayyā yāna āsana upetāḥ
prāsāda bhavana āśrayāḥ sarva kāmaiḥ

12. tu kṛtasya phalam tatra pratyakṣam
upalabhyate kecit śayyā yāna āsana
upetāḥ prāsāda bhavana āśrayāḥ sarva
kāmaiḥ vṛtāḥ hema ābharaṇa bhūṣitāḥ
12. Indeed, the result (phalam) of actions (kṛtasya) is directly perceived there. Some people are endowed with beds, conveyances, and seats, dwelling in palaces and mansions, surrounded by all desirable things, and adorned with golden ornaments.
प्राणधारणमात्रं तु केषांचिदुपपद्यते ।
श्रमेण महता केचित्कुर्वन्ति प्राणधारणम् ॥१३॥
13. prāṇadhāraṇamātraṁ tu keṣāṁcidupapadyate ,
śrameṇa mahatā kecitkurvanti prāṇadhāraṇam.
13. prāṇadhāraṇamātram tu keṣāñcit upapadyate
śrameṇa mahatā kecit kurvanti prāṇadhāraṇam
13. tu keṣāñcit prāṇadhāraṇamātram upapadyate
kecit mahatā śrameṇa prāṇadhāraṇam kurvanti
13. But for some, merely the sustenance of life (prāṇadhāraṇam) is possible. Some manage to sustain their life (prāṇadhāraṇam) with great effort.
इह धर्मपराः केचित्केचिन्नैकृतिका नराः ।
सुखिता दुःखिताः केचिन्निर्धना धनिनोऽपरे ॥१४॥
14. iha dharmaparāḥ kecitkecinnaikṛtikā narāḥ ,
sukhitā duḥkhitāḥ kecinnirdhanā dhanino'pare.
14. iha dharmaparāḥ kecit kecit naikṛtikāḥ narāḥ
sukhitāḥ duḥkhitāḥ kecit nirdhanāḥ dhaninaḥ apare
14. iha kecit narāḥ dharmaparāḥ kecit naikṛtikāḥ kecit
sukhitāḥ kecit duḥkhitāḥ kecit nirdhanāḥ apare dhaninaḥ
14. In this world, some people are devoted to moral law (dharma), while others are wicked. Some are happy, some are unhappy; some are poor, and others are wealthy.
इह श्रमो भयं मोहः क्षुधा तीव्रा च जायते ।
लोभश्चार्थकृतो नॄणां येन मुह्यन्ति पण्डिताः ॥१५॥
15. iha śramo bhayaṁ mohaḥ kṣudhā tīvrā ca jāyate ,
lobhaścārthakṛto nṝṇāṁ yena muhyanti paṇḍitāḥ.
15. iha śramaḥ bhayam mohaḥ kṣudhā tīvrā ca jāyate
lobhaḥ ca arthakṛtaḥ nṛṇām yena muhyanti paṇḍitāḥ
15. iha śramaḥ bhayam mohaḥ ca tīvrā kṣudhā ca jāyate
nṛṇām arthakṛtaḥ lobhaḥ ca yena paṇḍitāḥ muhyanti
15. Here (in this world), toil, fear, delusion, and intense hunger arise. And among people, greed caused by wealth also arises, by which even the wise (paṇḍitāḥ) become deluded.
इह चिन्ता बहुविधा धर्माधर्मस्य कर्मणः ।
यस्तद्वेदोभयं प्राज्ञः पाप्मना न स लिप्यते ॥१६॥
16. iha cintā bahuvidhā dharmādharmasya karmaṇaḥ ,
yastadvedobhayaṁ prājñaḥ pāpmanā na sa lipyate.
16. iha cintā bahuvidhā dharma-adharmasya karmaṇaḥ yaḥ
tat veda ubhayam prājñaḥ pāpmanā na saḥ lipyate
16. iha bahuvidhā cintā dharma-adharmasya karmaṇaḥ [bhavati]
yaḥ prājñaḥ tat ubhayam veda saḥ pāpmanā na lipyate
16. Here (in this world), there are various concerns regarding the actions (karma) of what is right (dharma) and wrong (adharma). The wise person (prājñaḥ) who knows both of these is not tainted by sin.
सोपधं निकृतिः स्तेयं परिवादोऽभ्यसूयता ।
परोपघातो हिंसा च पैशुन्यमनृतं तथा ॥१७॥
17. sopadhaṁ nikṛtiḥ steyaṁ parivādo'bhyasūyatā ,
paropaghāto hiṁsā ca paiśunyamanṛtaṁ tathā.
17. sa-upadham nikṛtiḥ steyam parivādaḥ abhyasūyatā
para-upaghātaḥ hiṃsā ca paiśunyam anṛtam tathā
17. sa-upadham nikṛtiḥ steyam parivādaḥ abhyasūyatā ca
para-upaghātaḥ hiṃsā ca paiśunyam tathā anṛtam ca [ete duṣṭāḥ]
17. Deceit, dishonesty, theft, slander, and malice; injury to others, violence, and also backbiting and falsehood.
एतानासेवते यस्तु तपस्तस्य प्रहीयते ।
यस्त्वेतान्नाचरेद्विद्वांस्तपस्तस्याभिवर्धते ॥१८॥
18. etānāsevate yastu tapastasya prahīyate ,
yastvetānnācaredvidvāṁstapastasyābhivardhate.
18. etān āsevate yaḥ tu tapaḥ tasya prahīyate yaḥ tu
etān na ācaret vidvān tapaḥ tasya abhivardhate
18. yaḥ tu etān āsevate tasya tapaḥ prahīyate yaḥ tu
vidvān etān na ācaret tasya tapaḥ abhivardhate
18. But whoever practices these (vices), his spiritual discipline (tapas) diminishes. But the wise one (vidvān) who does not practice these, his spiritual discipline (tapas) flourishes.
कर्मभूमिरियं लोक इह कृत्वा शुभाशुभम् ।
शुभैः शुभमवाप्नोति कृत्वाशुभमतोऽन्यथा ॥१९॥
19. karmabhūmiriyaṁ loka iha kṛtvā śubhāśubham ,
śubhaiḥ śubhamavāpnoti kṛtvāśubhamato'nyathā.
19. karma-bhūmiḥ iyam lokaḥ iha kṛtvā śubhāśubham
śubhaiḥ śubham avāpnoti kṛtvā aśubham ataḥ anyathā
19. iyam lokaḥ karma-bhūmiḥ iha śubhāśubham kṛtvā
śubhaiḥ śubham avāpnoti ataḥ aśubham kṛtvā anyathā
19. This world is a realm of action (karma-bhūmi). Having performed good and bad deeds here, one achieves good (results) through good actions, and conversely, (bad results) by performing bad actions.
इह प्रजापतिः पूर्वं देवाः सर्षिगणास्तथा ।
इष्ट्वेष्टतपसः पूता ब्रह्मलोकमुपाश्रिताः ॥२०॥
20. iha prajāpatiḥ pūrvaṁ devāḥ sarṣigaṇāstathā ,
iṣṭveṣṭatapasaḥ pūtā brahmalokamupāśritāḥ.
20. iha prajā-patiḥ pūrvam devāḥ sa-ṛṣi-gaṇāḥ tathā
iṣṭvā iṣṭa-tapasaḥ pūtāḥ brahma-lokam upāśritāḥ
20. iha pūrvam prajā-patiḥ devāḥ sa-ṛṣi-gaṇāḥ tathā
iṣṭvā iṣṭa-tapasaḥ pūtāḥ brahma-lokam upāśritāḥ
20. Here, formerly, Prajapati, the gods, and groups of sages, having performed Vedic rituals (yajña) and (through that) become purified by their desired austerities (tapas), attained the world of Brahman (brahmaloka).
उत्तरः पृथिवीभागः सर्वपुण्यतमः शुभः ।
इहत्यास्तत्र जायन्ते ये वै पुण्यकृतो जनाः ॥२१॥
21. uttaraḥ pṛthivībhāgaḥ sarvapuṇyatamaḥ śubhaḥ ,
ihatyāstatra jāyante ye vai puṇyakṛto janāḥ.
21. uttaraḥ pṛthivī-bhāgaḥ sarva-puṇya-tamaḥ śubhaḥ

25. iti ayam brahma-nirmitaḥ dharmaḥ mayā saṃkṣepāt uktaḥ
hi yaḥ lokasya dharma-adharmau vai vetti saḥ buddhimān
25. This natural law (dharma), divinely ordained (brahma-nirmita), has thus been briefly explained by me. Indeed, whoever truly understands the principles of right (dharma) and wrong (adharma) for humanity is truly intelligent.
