Shloka 45
Adhyaya 34 — Madālāsā’s Instruction on Sadācāra (Householder Conduct, Purity, and Daily Rites)
न चापि विक्षिपेत् पादौ पादं पादेन नाक्रमेत् ।
मर्माभिघातमाक्रोशं पैशुन्यञ्च विवर्जयेत् ॥
na cāpi vikṣipet pādau pādaṃ pādena nākramet |
marmābhighātam ākrośaṃ paiśunyañ ca vivarjayet ||
Huwag ugaliing umindayog o iwasiwas ang mga paa, ni ipatong ang isang paa sa isa pa nang walang paggalang. Iwasan ang pagtama sa maseselang bahagi, ang mapanlait na pagsigaw, at ang malisyosong pagsusumbong o paninirang-salita.

FAQs
The verse links manners to non-violence: disrespectful bodily habits often accompany disrespectful speech, and both can culminate in harm (injury, abuse, slander).
Ācāra-dharma; not pañcalakṣaṇa narrative.
Avoiding marma-injury is also symbolic: do not ‘strike’ another’s vulnerable inner points through words (ākrośa, paiśunya), which can be subtler violence than physical blows.
