Abstract

“Cetana haÿ bhikkhave kammaÿ vadami Cetayitva kammaÿ karoti, kayena, vacaya,
manasa” “It is intention that I call kamma, by intention one performs kamma through body,
word or mind.”
“Ubi Societas, ibi jus, where there is a community, there is law.” In Aristotle's Politics
suggests that any community, regardless of size, generates its own individual system of law.
When people gather and form a community, there will definitely be rules and mutual
agreements between them which are known as laws. In Buddhism we also have the rules
that the Buddha showed us to practice, sila for laypeople and patimokkha for monks. These
training rules are mostly found in the Vinaya Sutta.
