Gṛuhasthāshrammā rahīne kathā-vārtā kare chhe ne sāmbhaḷe chhe tenā to trividh tāp ṭaḷī gayā chhe, ne tap sarve thaī rahyā chhe ne Bhagwānnā sharaṇne pāmī rahyo chhe. Gṛuhasthāshrammā bahu kām ne bahu vighna, māṭe tene adhik kahyo chhe; ne gṛuhasthāshramīne Bhagwānnī mūrtine dharī rahyā evā Sādhuno āsharo chhe te to gharmā beṭhā sarva tīrthane sevī rahyo chhe.
One who lives as a householder, and delivers and listens to spiritual discourses is relieved of the three miseries, has completed all austerities and has attained the feet of God. In life as a householder there is much work and many obstacles, therefore it is described as superior. And a householder who has the refuge of a sadhu who beholds the murti of God is serving at all the places of pilgrimage, even while sitting at home.
