daṃsaṇaṇāṇacarittaṃ kiṃci vi ṇatthi du acedaṇe kamme.
tamhā kiṃ ghādayade cedayidā tammi kammammi..60
daṃsaṇaṇāṇacarittaṃ kiṃci vi ṇatthi du acedaṇe kāye.
tamhā kiṃ ghādayade cedayidā tesu kāyesu..61
(Daṃsaṇaṇāṇacarittaṃ acedaṇe visae du kiṃci vi ṇatthi) Since the physical substance [matter] is totally devoid of the triple characteristics—belief [faith], knowledge and conduct—of the soul, (cedayidā tesu visaesu kiṃ ghādayade) what can then the soul destroy in the physical objects?
(Daṃsaṇaṇāṇacarittaṃ acedaṇe kamme du kiṃci vi ṇatthi) Since the karmic matter is totally devoid of the triple characteristics—belief, knowledge and conduct—of the soul, (cedayidā tammi kammammi kiṃ ghādayade) what can then the soul destroy in these karmas?
(Daṃsaṇaṇāṇacarittaṃ acedaṇe kaye du kiṃci vi ṇatthi) Since the gross physical body [of a living organism] is totally devoid of the triple characteristics—belief, knowledge, and conduct—of the soul, (cedayidā tesu kāyesu kiṃ ghādayade) what can then the soul destroy in these bodies?
