A series of four verses begins with the refrain loke vihara — “wander the world”.
It returns to the chapter's first verse: līlayā vihara anagha (6.1).
Note vijvara — “without fever”, the word that has run through the whole chapter (6.14, 6.15, 6.47).
And dhyeya-tyāga — “the leaving of the object of meditation”, the mark from 2.45 and 6.45.
All this has been said before. One thing here is new: the command to stroll about the world.
After six chapters on how to leave, the book ends by sending the man back into the world.
This is perhaps the kindest thing it does.
