तदलं मम राज्येन यत्र धर्मो न विद्यते । वनमेव गमिष्यामि तस्माद्धर्मचिकीर्षया ॥
English Scholarly Translation
There is no such necessity by which no merit can be acquired. I shall, therefore, retire. into the forest acquiring religious merit. Laying aside the rod of punishment and controlling my senses, I shall go to the forest which is sacred and seek to acquire the merit of righteousness by becoming an ascetic living upon fruits and roots."
