Sanskrit (Devanāgarī)
दशैव पूर्वान्दश चापरांस्तु; ज्ञातीन्सहात्मानमथैकविंशम् । अरण्यवासी सुकृते दधाति; विमुच्यारण्ये स्वशरीरधातून् ॥
English Scholarly Translation
A learned should adopt the Vanaprastha mode of life, after the performance of the necessary rites. He should adopt it when he has been able to control his thirst for enjoyments and desire of acquiring wealth. When a man dies in the forest, leading the Vanaprastha mode of life, he mixes his ancestors and grand-children, numbering ten generations including himself, with the divine man essence.
