Vratisasana
A grave, unpardonable transgression that nullifies a viku's ascetic status, with no rite of atonement.
This is a *pantən* (*a major transgression that nullifies ascetic status*), a grave fall from status.
As for a *viku* who commits *agamyāgamana*, it is called 'fallen' (*patita*), included within *pantən*.
[VS_08j§4] But if he eats what is forbidden according to the *Vratiśāsana*, it is a *pantən* for the ascetic to do so.
