Hi ! Can't find the Ardra Pata Vasas on internet and I'm curious about why would they wear only wet cloths please ?

Its from Valmiki Ramayana : "vratōpavāsinō dāntāstathā.rdrapaṭavāsasaḥ. sajapāśca tapōnityāstathā pañcatapō.nvitāḥ৷৷3.6.5৷৷" The translation of the second sentence is - " ārdrapaṭavāsasaḥ those who wear only wet clothes all the time. " In ancient India, asceticism grew significant to the point that it was regarded as identical to religiousness and pity became synonymous with self-torture. Asceticism was considered an outward and visible sign of holiness. Buddha realised that with all the austerities, he failed to realise the supreme enlightenment. Buddha had found penances and self-mortifications quite unsatisfactory. He pronounced bodily austerities and self-torture to be not only futile but harmful and an actual hindrance.

If I cannot be an ascetic in this world then I want to waste away. My heart says run to God and live in nature, but family and society holds a knife to my heart. Without the spiritual life this world means nothing, and everyone in the world seems to be madly pursuing pleasure and material gain. This is sick.
