As for the preparation for sexual misconduct arising from greed: it means giving rise to an afflicted attachment toward another's wife, or seeking wealth, and so on. Born of hatred: eliminating an enemy and venting anger, initiating the preparation for sexual misconduct. Born of delusion: for instance, the Persians praise practicing non-chaste conduct with mothers and the like. Furthermore, tīrthikas praise women and men observing the bovine ascetic vow, making no distinction between close and distant relations, copulating with whoever is encountered. Moreover, tīrthikas say: 'All women are like mortars, flowers, fruits, cooked food, steps, roads, bridges, and boats: they should be used in common by all people in the world.' Such acts initiate the preparation for sexual misconduct from delusion.
