„Fest gebunden durch die Fesseln ihrer eigenen Taten kreisen sündige Wesen immer wieder: Sie durchwandern Tausende tierischer Schoße und sogar die Hölle, irren in wiederkehrenden Kreisläufen des Leidens umher, bis die Kraft des Karma erschöpft ist oder durch rechtschaffenes Handeln verwandelt wird.“

Actions bind: wrongdoing creates karmic bondage that drives the soul into painful states—animal births and hell—until one turns toward dharma and purifies conduct, weakening the chain of consequences.
The Vyādha (hunter), instructing on dharma, explains the moral mechanics of transmigration: beings do not suffer randomly; they cycle through lower births and hell specifically because their own karma compels it.
