Something of the cheerful feelings which actuate these religious mendicants may be found in the following passage: "He may be called a wise 'Jogee, or 'Fukeer, who has dried up the reservoir of hope with the fire of austere devotion, and who has subdued his mind, and kept the organs of sense in their proper place; and this is the condition of persons in this world, that their bodies undergo dissolution, their heads shake, and their teeth fall out.
There are bodies of many kinds, and minds of many kinds, and affections or fascinations of many kinds, and Brahma has created wickedness of many kinds; but a wise man, having escaped from these, and having subdued hope and avarice, and shaved his head, and taken a stick and water-pot in his hands, having subjugated the passion of love and anger, and become a 'Jogee, who wanders and travels about with naked feet to places of pilgrimage, obtains final liberation.
