“ I 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 removing such fetters from them in execution of orders from the king or any officer appointed by him." This vow is for his own welfare. Arya Udaka! What you say that the vow of a person who has taken a vow to abstain from injuring a trasa (moving) living being, is violated by that person killing a trasa living being because a trasa (moving) living being becomes a sthavara (immovable) living being, is not correct. A living being is known as a trasa living being by its udaya (occurrence) of its Trasa Nama Karma (a state existence placed under the category of Trasa Nama Karma) But with the completion of its period of existence as a trasa living being, it leaves that state and is produced as a sthavara kaya living being. At that time, there is an occurrence of Sthāvara Nāma Karma and it is named Sthāvara-kayika. In the same way, with the completion of its period of existence as a sthavara-kaya living being, it is produced as a trasa-käyika living being, and it is then called a trasa prāņa (a moving living being). Its body is extensive and its period of existence is very long
