tina mudrāra bhoṭa gāya, mādhukarī grāsa
dharma-hāni haya, loka kare upahāsa"

 tina mudrāra bhoṭa - a woolen blanket costing three gold coins; gāya - on the body; mādhukarī grāsa - and practicing the mādhukarī system; dharma-hāni haya - that is a religious discrepancy; loka kare upahāsa - people will joke.


Text

“It is contradictory to practice mādhukarī and at the same time wear a valuable blanket. One loses his spiritual strength by doing this, and one will also become an object of jokes.”
