17.26

'Frivolous talk encompasses both manifestation and possession' means that in Uttarakuru, frivolous talk encompasses both present manifestation and possession, because they at times sing with a polluted mind. Because they lack an evil intention, they lack the six—killing and so forth. Furthermore, because their lifespan is fixed, there is no killing. Because they do not appropriate wealth, there is no stealing. Because they do not possess women [as wives], there is no sexual misconduct. Because their bodies and minds are gentle, there is no harsh speech. And because it serves no purpose, there is neither divisive speech nor false speech. As for the conduct of non-celibacy there: men and women there hold hands and lead each other beneath a tree; if the tree branches bend down and cover them, they know it is appropriate to engage [in union]; if the tree does not bend its branches, both feel ashamed and part.
