WORD BY WORD
TRANSLATION
| Not only the performer of the theft but also anyone who assists him, instigates the crime, or simply approves of it must also share the reaction in the next life. According to their degree of participation, they each must suffer a proportionate consequence.

PURPORT
| Stealing paraphernalia meant for worshiping the Supreme Lord or His authorized representatives should be avoided at all costs.
