Some Aspects of ladian Cultura
कापुरिस (Coward) ३ वसि चडंति, धुणंति करा, धूलीधोया हुति ।
पोट्टह कारणि कापुरिसा के कं जं न कुणंति ॥ (१.६७) 3. The cowards climb a pole, shake the hands, and become soiled with dust. What is it that they do not do for the sake of their bellies ? (4. 67).
कोह (Anger) ४ धम्माधम्म न याणइ, कज्जाकज्जं च सुक्यदुकयं वा ।
कोहघ(ग्घ)त्थो पुरिसो भक्खाभकखं च कुसलो वि ॥ 4. A person, though wise, but possessed with anger cannot distinguish between religion and irreligion, a good deed and a bad deed and good behaviour and bad behaviour. (3; 82).

खल (Villain) ५ दोजीह वक्कगई', परछिहालोयणमि तल्लिन्छ ।
बहुकोह भयजणणं, पिसुणभुयंग व संठविउ ॥ संते नासेइ गुणे, आरोवइ अवगुणे असंते वि । विहिविलसियस्स व खलस्स पुणो किल का न बोहेइ ।। खणरत्तखणविरत, खणेण मम्माणि तह य भगत ।
दुट्ठकलतं व खलं, विवज्जणीयं सयाकाल ।। ८ सुग्गेज्झा मत्तगया, भुयगा सीहा य तह य वग्धा य ।
मम्मानेसणपउणं, दुग्गेझं चेव खलहिययं ॥ सायरजलपरिमाण' सुरगिरिमाण च भुयणसम्भावं ।
जाणंति बुद्धिमंता, खलस्स हिययं न याति ।। (१.८-१२) 5. A villain is like a serpent as he is d ouble-tonged, is moving in a zigzag manner, is intent upon looking at the loopholes in others, is prone to much anger, is producing fright, and is difficult to be pacified,
6, Like the wanton movement of Fate, who is not afraid of a villain who destroys the merits whichever may be there and acquires the demerits which are not there ?
7. A villain who is pleased at one moment and displeased at another and cuts the vital parts in an instant, is, like a bad wife, always to be abandoned.
8. One can understand the (working of) wild elephents, snakes, lion and tigers, but one cannot understand the villian's heart engaged in finding out the weak points (in others).
9. The intelligent people can know the quantity of the waters of the ocean, the dimension of the mountain Meru and the nature of the people of the whole world even. But they cannot comprehend the heart of the villain. (1; 8-12).
