1.18

“Furthermore, from beginningless time down to the present day, I have raised armies to attack others, clashing in border disputes where two battle lines faced each other, slaughtering one another; or killed by myself, instructed others to kill, or rejoiced upon hearing of killing; or engaged in butchery and dressing meat, being hired to perform executions, boiling and slaughtering the lives of others, acting without compassion; or gave full vent to wrath, brandishing halberds and dancing with blades; or severed, stabbed, or pushed [beings] into pits and moats, or drowned them in water, or blocked burrows and destroyed nests, crushing [them] under mounds of earth and stones; or crushed and trampled all sentient beings with thunderous chariots and horses. Sins such as these are limitless and boundless; today I disclose and completely repent them all.
