Piṇḍacārikāya bhikṣave, hy ātmabharāya nānyapoṣiṇe,
The alms-gathering monastic, self-supporting, not nourishing another,
Devāḥ spṛhayanti tāyine, hy upaśāntāya sadā smṛtātmane. In this verse, the words bhikṣave, anyapoṣiṇe, tāyine, and smṛtātmane are morphologically locative singular but function syntactically as datives, representing the object of the verb spṛhayanti (they envy). This use of the locative for the dative is a common Prakritism in Buddhist Hybrid Sanskrit. Cf. the Pali parallel and see Syntax §170. 32.1
the Devas envy such a one, a peaceful one who is always mindful of himself.

sa tu bhikṣur idaṁ jahāty apāraṁ, hy urago jīrṇam iva tvacaṁ purāṇam. 32.55
that monastic abandons the near shore, Meaning he will never return to this near shore, having gone beyond. In the Pāḷi it says: the monastic abandons the near and the far shore. like a snake abandons its old, worn-out skin.

The one who neither overshoots nor stays back, knowing everything in the world as: this is false,
so bhikkhu jahāti orapāraṁ, urago jiṇṇam-ivattacaṁ purāṇaṁ.
that monastic abandons the near and the far shore, The comm. seems a little unsure how to interpret orapāra, and says: “The near is the six internal sense bases, the far is the six external sense bases; likewise, the near is the human world, the far is the world of Devas; the near is the realm of sensual desire, the far is the realm of form and the formless; the near is existence in the realms of desire and form, the far is existence in the formless realm; the near is individual existence, the far is the causes for the pleasure of individual existence.” We can presume that near and far is meant to be all-encompassing, and that the monastic gives it all up. like a snake abandons its old, worn-out skin.
