237 to 241: For instance, a man smeared with oil standing
in a place full of dust, performs exercises with a sword, cuts or breaks trees such a
palm, tamala, plantain, bamboo and asoka and thus causes destruction to objects, animate
and inanimate. In the case of this person who is engaged in the destructive activity by
assuming various bodily postures, what is the real condition causing dust deposit on his
person?
Certainly it is the oil smeared on his body that must be considered to be
the real cause of the dust-deposit and certainly not his various bodily activities. In the
same way a wrong believer even while he is engaged in various activities, only if he
performs those activities, with feeling of attachment then certainly he gets covered with
karmic dust.
