## Ninth Dasha
**With Hindi Commentary**
**327**
**Original Meaning:** One who repeatedly uses unethical practices like spells for self-praise or to cultivate friendships earns the karma of great delusion.
**Commentary:** This sutra describes unethical teachings and their use. Anyone who repeatedly teaches unethical practices like spells for self-praise or friendship, i.e., teaches the methods of spells according to tantra-shastra, which leads to the oppression (destruction of power) of many beings and causes them to fall into the five 'asravas', diverting them from Dharma and leading them towards unethical actions, earns the karma of great delusion. Because their soul, instead of following the path of 'samvara', gets diverted towards the path of 'asrava'. Regardless of the reason for teaching, the one who teaches will inevitably be bound by this karma.
Now, the sutrakar describes the 28th position, saying:
**28.** "He who desires human or heavenly pleasures, being insatiable, cultivates great delusion."
**Word-by-word meaning:** "Je - whoever, Maanusae - human-related, Bhoae - pleasures, Aduva - or, Paraloiae - heavenly, Te - all of them, Atippyanto - being insatiable, Aasayai - desires, Mahamoham - great delusion, Pakuvvai - earns."
**Original Meaning:** One who desires human or heavenly pleasures, being insatiable, earns the karma of great delusion.
**Commentary:** This sutra states that excessive attachment to worldly desires does not lead to good results. One who desires heavenly, human, or other types of pleasures, being insatiable, earns the karma of great delusion.
