Translation Chapter 26, ਮਾਸ ਖਾਣ ਦੀ ਨਿਖੇਧੀ
Kural 254 (Couplet 26:4) Kural 258 (Couplet 26:8)
Tarlochan Singh Bedi, 2012ਜੇਵ ਹਤਿਆ ਕਰਨੀ ਵੱਡਾ ਅਧਰਮ ਹੈ ਆਪ ਨਾ ਮਾਰਨ ਦਾ ਪਖੰਡ ਕਰਕੇ
ਦੂਜਿਆਂ ਦੁਆਰਾ ਮਾਰਿਆ ਮਾਸ ਖਾਣਾ ਤਾਂ ਉਸ ਤੋਂ ਵੀ ਵੱਡਾ ਅਧਰਮ ਹੈ।		ਤ੍ਰਮ ਜਾਲ (ਮਾਇਆ ਜਾਲ) ਤੋਂ ਰਹਿਤ ਲੋਕ ਕਦੇ ਮਾਸ ਨਹੀਂ ਖਾਣਗੋ
ਕਿਉਂ ਜੋ ਉਹਨਾਂ ਨੂੰ ਗਿਆਨ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ ਕਿ ਮਾਸ ਕਿਸੇ ਮਰੇ ਹੋਏ ਜੀਵ ਦਾ ਅੰਸ਼ ਮਾਤ੍ਰ ਹੈ।

gollark: I'm saying that if it became bad enough that datacentres failed, it would also break other stuff.
gollark: If you just use a pulse per second output from a GPS receiver for generic whatever it's fine. If you want to actually find your position then it would be bad.
