Renouncing ornaments & costly dress

Mool Shankar started for the village Saila to meet yogi Lala Bhakt to obtain efficiency in yoga in order to conquer death and to have darshan of the true shiva. In the way Mool Shankar met some swindelers (thugs) who were attracted by the ornaments and costly dress of Mool Shankar. The Thugs pursuaded Mool Shankar to renounce the costly items. Mool Shankar was already in a mood of sacrifice, so he gave all these things to the thugs and proceeded on his journey on high mission.
