2.42 iccetehim virūvarūvehim kajjehim damda-samāyānam. He indulges in violence for perpetrating these various deeds. Bhāśyam Sutra 42 One indulges in acts of violence for the sake of the ends mentioned in the previous sūtra. Punishment, injury and killing are synonyms. 2.43 sapehãe bhayā kajjati. 2.44 páva-mokkhotti maņņamāne. 2.45 aduvā āsamsãe. (43-45) He indulges in such action in accord with his own thinking or out of fear; or pondering that such acts will redeem him from sins; or out of expectation of something not achieved till then. Bhāsyam Sutra 43 - 45 Punishment is inflicted for acquiring power. This explains the purpose of punishment. Now the four motives of the acquisition of power are enumerated:
1. Self-reflection 2. Fear 3. Redemption from sin or evil, and
4. Expectation (for the unachieved ends). 2.46 tam parinnāya mehāvi neva sayam eehim kajjehim damdam samārambhejjā, nevannam eehim kajjehim damdam samārambhāvejjā, nevannam eehim kajjehim damdam samārambhamtam samanujanejjā. Comprehending this, the intelligent aspirant does not himself indulge in such violent activities, nor does he get them done by others, nor does he approve others indulging in them. Bhāṇyam Sūtra 46 The preceding three sūtras gave the motives behind violent action. This sūtra enjoins that the violent action should not be done by oneself, got done by other, or approved of as done by others. The above is said in reference to an intelligent person. Such advice is appropriate to a person whose intellect can evaluate the merit of ahimsā. 2.47 esa magge āriehim paveie. This path has been revealed by the āryas. Bhāoyam Sutra 47 This path of non-greed, non-possessiveness and the emancipation from mineness has been laid down by the Aryas. Ārya' means Ācārya. 2.48 jahettha kusale novalimpijjāsi. — tti bemi. In order that the prudent does not involve himself in possessiveness. Thus I say. Bhāsyam Sūtra 48 This path has been laid down by Jinas, that is, propounded with the view that the prudent might not get involved in possessiveness.
