Black means the protection of created beings, destruction belongs to the merciless. Sin means contempt for law; the haughty man acts after his own will. Tuka says, To keep faith alive, God aroused himself and came into the world.
Such as have stored up a heap of merit, such will importune God to save them; if a man is strong enough to send a weak man to Benares, when he has gone and come back, the merit will be shared between them. When worship or dinner is going on, a sleeping man should be sound; there is boundless pleasure in doing this. To perform a sacrifice a man must take a loan, and one who is prosperous ought to grant it him; if it is lost, neither of them will be grieved. Tuka says, With full knowledge of the purpose the loan should be asked and taken; there should be no false pretences.
