CC Antya 8.66

যথাযোগ্য উদর ভরে, না করে ‘বিষয়’ ভোগ ।
সন্ন্যাসীর তবে সিদ্ধ হয় জ্ঞানযোগ ॥ ৬৬ ॥
yathā-yogya udara bhare, nā kare ‘viṣaya’ bhoga
sannyāsīra tabe siddha haya jñāna-yoga

“A sannyāsī eats as much as necessary to maintain his body, but he does not enjoy satisfying his senses materially. Thus a sannyāsī becomes perfect in his spiritual advancement in knowledge.
