Asceticism is abandonment and abandonment is known *** as holding what is in the palm clenched
The earth is his grip, and he is the rich, so where is *** abandonment? It is impossible for you. It is imposed.
The right is not blessed with blessings, for you are for them *** and you have renounced this. The word “exposure ”
Asceticism has no rank in knowledge *** leaving it among the people of the community is obligatory .
