## Dasha Shruta Skandha Sutra
## Jhanjha-kare || 17 ||
## Jhanjha-karah || 17 ||
## Padaarthanvaya - Jhanjha-kare - One who uses words that cause division.
## Moolarth - 1 - One who uses words that cause division and discord among others.
## Teeka - Using words that create division among the community and cause distress in their minds leads to asamadhi (lack of concentration). The reason is clear - when division arises in the community, samadhi (concentration) will be broken, inevitably leading to asamadhi. This will result in self-destruction and violation of restraint.
## Pratham Dasha
## When a person experiences sorrow, their mind usually does not experience any other emotions besides regret and anger. These two emotions are capable of completely destroying samadhi. Therefore, it is proven that one should not use words that create division. Those who desire self-samadhi should completely avoid such actions.
## The word "Jhanjha" is also used to describe engaging in rude and contentious arguments. Those who desire samadhi should never engage in such arguments.
## The essence is that one should never use words that create division, as it inevitably leads to asamadhi.
## Now the sutrakar describes the subject of conflict:
## Kalhai-kare || 18 ||
## Kalha-karah || 18 ||
## Padaarthanvaya - Kalha-kare - One who engages in conflict.
## Moolarth - One who causes distress.
