બેઠક Bethak

સાધુ થવામાં શું સુખ? એક ભટકવું ને બીજી ભૂખ.

sādhu thavāmāṁ śuṁ sukha? ēka bhaṭakavuṁ nē bījī bhūkha.

Literally
What happiness is there in becoming an ascetic? One is wandering, and the other is hunger.
What it means
The life of a monk or ascetic is full of physical hardships, not peace and comfort.
