Nor one who has fallen in difficulties regarding weapons; nor one in distress, nor one severely wounded, nor one who is frightened, nor one who has turned back;鈥攖he king remembering the duties of honourable men.鈥�(93)

 

Medh膩tithi鈥檚 commentary (manubh膩峁�ya):

鈥�Difficulties regarding weapons鈥欌�攕uch as the breaking of weapons, the sword becoming crooked, the snapping of the bowstring and so forth.

鈥�In distress鈥欌�攐n having lost his son or brother or some other relative.

鈥�Frightened鈥欌�� showing such signs of fear as the paleness of face and the like, even though still facing his foe.

鈥�Turned back鈥欌�� starding with his face turned away.

These are positive rules to be observed. If they are to be regarded as prohibitions, the non-observance of them would be sinful; [which would mean that their observance would simply save the man from that sin, and in that case] the declaration regarding the attaining of Heaven would be purely commendatory.

What then is the right view to take regarding these rules?

They are prohibitions set up for the man鈥檚 benefit, standing on the same footing as the prohibition of eating the flesh of the animal killed by a poisoned arrow. It is only when we take the rules thus that the negative word retains its primary meaning.

鈥�Remembering the duties of honourable men鈥欌�攖he sense of 鈥�anu鈥� is that such is the usage of all cultured men.鈥�(93)
