Kneeling long, he received the precepts and became a pure-faith layman (upāsaka): not killing, not stealing, not committing adultery, not deceiving, upholding filial piety, and not becoming intoxicated. Joyfully he made obeisance to the Buddha and departed. Thus the texts say: "The five colors blind the eyes; the five tones deafen the ears; the five flavors deaden the palate." Great anger harms yin; great joy ruins yang. Fair beauty is the axe that cuts down nature; fine delicacies are the poison that rots the body. One who can awaken to this principle is a great master. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 70.40](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.70.40) - [Next: 70.42](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.70.42) - [Up: 70](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.70) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122~en-mt.70.41) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [諸經要集](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.13.85) — Classical Chinese - [佛說八師經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.other.astaguruutra*zh-zhi-qian.1.34) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.70.41](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.70.41) · Pramāṇa
