12.202

奪一切眾生精氣，眾生心中有七滴聒水，取一滴二滴令人頭痛，三滴令人心悶，四滴五滴已下則死。

[They] snatch the vital energy of all sentient beings. In the hearts of sentient beings there are seven drops of vital moisture; taking one or two drops causes a headache, three drops causes anguish of heart, and four or five drops or more causes death.
