Udaka:-Long-lived Cautama! Kumāra-putra Sramana preaching your principles mentioned vow to a house-holder, coming to him for such a Vow :
___ "! take a vow not to injure any trasa (moving) living being except with the object of putting on fetters on any householder, or on a robber, or of rernoving such fetters from them in execution of orders from a king or any officer appointed by him."
O Noble Man | Such a vow becomes an indiscrete vow. One who gives such a vow, does an unjust disavowal. One who takes such a vow and one who gives such a vow, violate their vows. Because, all the living beings move about in this Samsāra (Universe). Sthăvara (immovable) living beings, after death, are produced as tras (moving) living bodies, and trasa living beings, after death, are produced as Sthăvara living beings in this way,
