yat - because; asau - this brÄhmaṇa; Å›Ästram ullaá¹…ghya - transgressing the laws of Å›Ästra; svaira-cÄrÄ« - acting irresponsibly; ati-garhitaḥ - very much condemned; avartata - passed; ciram kÄlam - a long time; agha-Äyuḥ - whose life was full of sinful activities; aÅ›uciḥ - unclean; malÄt - because of impurity.
This brÄhmaṇa irresponsibly spent his long lifetime transgressing all the rules and regulations of the holy scripture, living extravagantly and eating food prepared by a prostitute. Therefore he is full of sins. He is unclean and is addicted to forbidden activities.
Food prepared by an unclean, sinful man or woman, especially a prostitute, is extremely infectious. AjÄmila ate such food, and therefore he was subject to be punished by YamarÄja.
