beings that are poisonous by birth. The body size of the beings mentioned here should be taken to be the maximum mentioned in Agams. The venom
of those with medium and minimum size is not so potent. Another 4 interpretation of these statements could be that the area covered refers to 41 the availability of the poisonous beings referred therein.
The commentator (Tika), explaining these aphorisms states--"Sting of a scorpion contains arsenic. If a scorpion stings an animal the arsenic 4 kills it. This toxic dead body when consumed by some carnivore transfers
the toxicity into the body of the flesh eater. If this process continues in progression, the toxicity may spread in an area equivalent to half the area of Bharat.
The fact that scorpion and reptiles are poisonous is universally known but the molars of human beings also contain so strong a poison is a lesser known fact. It is said that the blood of a person who strictly
avoids sour, sweet, and salty things becomes highly toxic. If such person Si bites someone in a fit of anger this poison will spread throughout his
body. Even poisonous beings die when they bite such person. The area where this toxicity may spread is said to be the whole area inhabited by human beings. However, the author also adds that although their poison is so strong no being has ever used the poison to that effect. (Hindi Tika, part 1. p. 1025)
