Buddha Vacana ~ Sharing verses for Mar 10, 2014

69. And how is cleaning of the body threefold? Concerning this, one abandons killing, lays aside the rod and the knife; one lives gently, kindly and feeling compassion towards every living being.
One abandons stealing the property of another, whether in the jungle or the village; things not given, one does not steal.
One abandons sexual misconduct. One has no intercourse with girls under the guardianship of mother, father, brother, sister or relatives, with girls lawfully protected, already pledged to a husband, those undergoing punishment or those dressed with flowers and pledged to be married.

Anguttara Nikaya V.266
