Question: Why is it named 'initiating preparatory means to terminate life'? Answer: If the killer in that matter gives rise to an unwholesome thought, definitely wishing to cut off life and not having a mind of loving-kindness and compassion, and performs the preparatory means of killing, this is named 'initiating'.
