## Dvādaśānuprekṣādhikāra 8.269
**731.** Even those who have faith, always commit grave sins, which are the cause of an evil destiny. Therefore, those passions and aversions are to be condemned.
**732.** It is difficult to control these sense objects without a concentrated mind. Just as a man without mantras and medicines cannot control poisonous snakes.
**733.** Condemned are those senses, under whose control this being, having committed sins, obtains the fruits of those sins, which are infinite suffering in the four destinies.
**734.** Having committed grave sins by means of names, weight, and the three kinds of gravity, this being, burdened with the weight of karma, experiences great suffering.
