Text

After saying this, the AÅ›vinÄ«-kumÄras caught hold of Cyavana Muni, who was an old, diseased invalid with loose skin, white hair, and veins visible all over his body, and all three of them entered the lake.

Purport

Cyavana Muni was so old that he could not enter the lake alone. Thus the AÅ›vinÄ«-kumÄras caught hold of his body, and the three of them entered the lake.
