________________ Bhāsyam Sūtra 173 Being attached to violence, they produce addiction. Addiction is lust and hatred or karmic bondage. The opposites of what is said in the Sūtras 169 to 173 are formulated in the Cūrņi (pp. 41,42) in the following way: The people who are not seized by the sensual objects, who find interest in the discipline, who preach the discipline not indulging in injury to air-bodied beings, who are not carried by good intentions and practise them, who being not involved in indulgences do not produce bondage. 1.174 se vasumam savva-samannāgaya-paņņāenam akaranijjam pāvam kammam A self-disciplined monk, endowed with compehensible wisdom, cannot indulge in any harmful activity. Bhāsyam Sūtra 174 Wisdom: insight. Comprehensive: means comprising all objects or conversant with the entire truth. Self-disciplined: means a self-restrained. For such aspirant, harmful activities are impossible of being done owing to his all-comprehensive insight. Only the person in whom all-comprehensive insight or truthfull insight has dawned considers evil activities as unworty of being done." 1.175 tam ņo annesim. He should not seek for such (harmful activities). Bhāsyam Sūtra 175 In the preceding Sūtra, it has been laid down that one should not do harmful activities. In this Sūtra, it is said that one should not seek for harmful activity. Seeking harmful activity is produced due to the fruition of past karma. A person striving for the suppression of harmful activities should exert himself for purifying his attitude. The purified attitude will make the karma that was the cause of seeking harmful activity unproductive of its effect.
