TRANSLATION
After that Maharaj Yudhisthir dressed himself by torn clothings, gave up eating of all solid foodstuff, voluntarily became dumb and unlocked his bunch of hairs. All these combined he was seen just like an urchin mad man without any activity. He did not any more depend for anything upon his brothers neither did he hear anything just like a deafman.
PURPORT
Thus being freed from all external affairs he had nothing to do with imperial or family prestige and for all practical purposes he posed himself exactly like an inert mad urchin without any talkativeness in terms of material affairs. Neither he had any kind of dependence upon his brothers who had all along been helping hand to him. This stage of complete independence of everything is also called the purified stage of fearlessness.
