You cannot pass. If you are on the bottom step of all three temples you can't beg, so the gods take pity: you place exactly one worker on the lowest-cost action space and give all your corn to the bank. Players read 'lowest cost' as the cheapest space across the whole board, choosing among ties; one poster suggested passing instead, which contradicts the rulebook.
