When the solution is simple, God is answering.
God always takes the simplest way.
'As I am, so are they; as they are, so am I.' Comparing others with oneself, do not kill nor cause others to kill.
Delight in heedfulness! Guard well your thoughts!
Purity and impurity depend on oneself; no one can purify another.
Speak only endearing speech, speech that is welcomed. Speech, when it brings no evil to others, is a pleasant thing.
The thing that is disliked by me is also disliked by others. Since I dislike this thing, how can I inflict it on someone else?
'As I am, so are these. As are these, so am I.' Drawing the parallel to yourself, neither kill nor get others to kill.
All tremble at violence; all fear death. Putting oneself in the place of another, one should not kill nor cause another to kill.
