In the **Sarvarthasiddhi**, it is stated that the vision of **apaya** (negative consequences) and **avady** (blameworthy actions) in **himsa** (violence) and other **five vices** is essential both in this life and the next.
**Apaya** refers to the destruction of actions leading to **abhyudaya** (worldly prosperity) and **nishreyasa** (spiritual liberation). **Avady** signifies blameworthy actions. The vision of both **apaya** and **avady** is crucial to understand the consequences of these vices.
**Violence:** A violent person is constantly subjected to distress and burdened by animosity. In this life, they face punishments like death, imprisonment, and suffering. After death, they are destined for an unfavorable rebirth and are considered blameworthy. Therefore, abandoning violence is the most beneficial path.
**False Speech:** A liar is untrustworthy and faces consequences like tongue-cutting in this life. They also suffer from the pain inflicted by those who have been deceived by their lies and face animosity from them. After death, they are destined for an unfavorable rebirth and are considered blameworthy. Therefore, abandoning false speech is the most beneficial path.
**Stealing:** A thief, obsessed with stealing others' possessions, is despised by all. In this life, they face punishments like torture, death, imprisonment, and mutilation of limbs. After death, they are destined for an unfavorable rebirth and are considered blameworthy. Therefore, abandoning stealing is the most beneficial path.
**Unchastity:** An unchaste person is driven by lust and behaves like a wild elephant separated from its mate, facing suffering and punishments like death, imprisonment, and torture. Their mind, clouded by lust, is incapable of discerning right from wrong. They indulge in sexual misconduct, leading to animosity and punishments like castration, death, imprisonment, and loss of possessions. After death, they are destined for an unfavorable rebirth and are considered blameworthy. Therefore, abandoning unchastity is the most beneficial path.
**Attachment:** Just as a bird, attracted to a piece of meat, is attacked by other birds, a person attached to possessions faces similar consequences.
