Furthermore, the Abhidharmasamuccaya-vyākhyā states: Concerning non-disciplined karma, what is termed 'non-disciplined'? It refers to butchering sheep, raising chickens, raising swine, catching birds, catching fish, hunting deer, snaring hares, robbery, execution, slaughtering cattle, binding elephants, erecting altars to charm serpents, guarding a prison, slander and intrigue, delighting in doing harm, and the like. 'Butchering sheep' means butchering, raising, buying, and selling in order to sustain one's life. The same applies to raising chickens, swine, and so forth, as appropriate. 'Binding elephants' means constantly dwelling in mountain forests to tame and capture wild elephants. 'Erecting altars to charm serpents' means practising the charming of serpents to make sport and sustain oneself. 'Slander and intrigue' means using divisive speech to ruin others' close relations and relying on it to sustain one's life. 'Either due to being born into that clan, or due to undertaking that vocation' means either being born into that household, or being born into another household, and undertaking to perform that activity according to their sequence. 'Determination' means that bodily and vocal expedients precede a firm vow to engage in that activity. This is termed non-disciplined karma.
