Translation

Translation

There are three gates leading to this hell – lust, anger and greed. Every sane man should give these up, for they lead to the degradation of the soul.

Sellesse põrgusse viib kolm väravat: iha, viha ja ahnus. Iga arukas inimene peaks need hülgama, sest vastasel juhul põhjustavad need hinge mandumise.

Purport

Purport

The beginning of demoniac life is described herein. One tries to satisfy his lust, and when he cannot, anger and greed arise. A sane man who does not want to glide down to the species of demoniac life must try to give up these three enemies, which can kill the self to such an extent that there will be no possibility of liberation from this material entanglement.

Siin kirjeldatakse deemonliku elu algust. Kui inimene püüab rahuldada oma himusid ning see tal ei õnnestu, muutub ta vihaseks ja ahneks. Arukas inimene, kes ei taha langeda deemonlikesse eluliikidesse, peab loobuma nendest kolmest vaenlasest, millele alistumise läbi võib elusolend kui hing sedavõrd manduda, et talle ei jää mingit võimalust selle materiaalse maailma ahelaist vabaneda.
