Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Mahavansi, the Raja-Ratnacari, and the Raja-Vali, Vol. 3 of 3: Forming the Sacred and Historical Books
Sin did not enter into the world by any other means than by the three principal means, as that. Of avarice, covetousness, and anger: the heart which is given up to one, two, or all three of these vices, is called a sinful heart, and what we say, do, or think, with such a heart, is sin.
