The wise persons therefore believe that the soul, though distinct froin the body, has come to be encased in it and that this relation brings about, somehow or other, an identity bet iveen them. Hence the pain caused by hurting the body or by the loss of body is called injury (Hinsa ).
10 All the creatures from Indra down to a worm like happiness and dislike pain. Taking this into consideration, a person should ever refrain from doing harm ( to others).
One's own life (Prāna) is the dearest thing to the embodied beings. For its sake alone, eren sovereignty is discarded. Can we then conceive of any charitable act to expiate the sin of killing?
12 Even injuring the lotus-like heart of another by the cold water of causing pain, is considered by wise persons to be a kind of Hinsa [ injury ). Much more it is a Hinsă if a life is blotted out from the surface of this world.
