.() Tattvártha Sutra says:
प्रमत्तयोगात्प्राणव्यपरापणं हिंसा ॥ १३-७॥ - Pramatha yogit prana vyaparopanam himsa . 13/7
“Destruction of (subjective and objective) vitalities through passionate activities of mind, body and speech is injury or himsa."
Subjective vitalities are the qualities of soul such as knowledge, bliss and peacefulness. Objective or inaterial vitalities are ten. Immobile one-sensed beings have four, two-sensed have six, three-sensed, seven ; four-sensed, eight ; five-sensed irrational, nine ; and five-sensed rationals have ten. These are explained in the second chapter of this book (p. 94-95).
(4) Puruśârthasiddhiupaya describes himsa fully; Let us quote some verses :----
यत्खलु कषाययोगात्प्राणानां द्रव्यभावरूपाणां । व्यपरोपणस्यकरणं सुनिश्चिताभवति सा हिंसा ॥४३॥ अत्मपरिणामहिंसनहेतुत्वात्सर्वमेव हिंसैतत्। . अनृतवचनादि केवल मुदाहृतं शिष्यबोधाय ॥ ४२ ॥ अप्रादुर्भावः खलु रागादीनां भवत्यहिंसेति । तेषामेवोत्पत्तिर्हिसेति जिनागमस्य संक्षेपः ॥४४॥ कृतकारितानुमननैर्वाकाय मनोभिरिष्यते नवधा ।
औत्सर्गिकी निवृत्तिर्विचित्ररूपापवादिकीत्वेषा ॥ ७६॥ धर्म महिसारूपं संश्रण्वंतो पि परित्यक्तु । . . स्थावर हिंसा म सहास्त्रासहिंसांतेपि मुंचंतु ॥७५॥ स्तोकैकेन्द्रिय घाताद्गहिणां सम्पन्न योग्य विषयाणां । शेषस्थावर मारण विरमणमपि भवति करणीयम् ॥ ७७॥
