________________ ( 33 ) Karma (by others) how then art thou made happy by them? · 268. When all living beings are riserable (or) happy by the operation of Karma ; and thou art not given the Karmas, how (then) art thou made miserable by them? 269. Whoever dies and whoever is miserable, becomes so, all by the operation of Karmas. Therefore, is not (the idea that) tbou art killed or art made miserable (by others) really false ? 270. If one does not die and is not miserable that also (is) certainly due to the operation of Karmas). Therefore is not (the thought) that he is not done to death by thee or me. 271. This thought of thine that I cause beings to be miserable (or) happy is foolish thinking. It makes good and bad Karmas bind thee. 272, The impure thinking that I cause living beings (to be) miserable or happy, becomes the cause of the bondage of merit and demerit. 273. Thy impure thinking that I kill or I give life to living beings, becomes the cause of the hondage of demerit and merit. 214. Bondage is cansed by impure thought activity, whether you will or do not kill living beings. From the real point of view this is the epitome of the bondage of souls. 275. Similarly, whenever there is impure thinking as regards falsehood, appropriation of what is not given, anchastity or worldly belongings, demeritorious Karmas are thereby bound. 276. Similarly, by thoughts directed to abstinence from stealing, falsehood, unchastity and possessions meritoriaus Karmas are bound.
