If a being remains breathing even for a moment it is surely fortunate. The foolish man regards the loss of his dear one as a dart shot into his heart. Another man looks on the same as a dart that has been pulled out, for it is a door to beatitude. When we are taught that our own body and soul unite and then separate, tell me which wise person should be tormented by separation from the external objects of the senses?”.

When it comes it should be rewarded by food, so that it may not be disappointed. [...] If highly fed, they grow naughty (vikṛti); if starved, they do not grow attached or strong [atipuṣṭastu vikṛtimaśaktim atikarṣitaḥ]. Birds of this clas are like low people. [...]”.

In Jainism

General definition (in Jainism)

Source: archive.org: Jaina Yoga

Vikṛti (विकृति).—According to the 12th century Yogaśāstra (verse 3.130) by Hemacandra, the articles of food (āhāra) are classified into ten vikṛtis:

1. kṣīra (milk),
2. dadhi (curds),
3. navanīta (butter),
4. ghṛta (ghee),
5. taila (oil),
6. guḍa (molasses),
7. madya (alcohol),
8. madhu (honey),
9. māṃsa (meat),
10. avagāhima.

The essential idea of a vikṛti seems to be that of a foodstuff that has changed its nature owing to a process of cooking or to bacteriological action. In the conventional interpretation of the commentators it is “that by which tongue and mind are perverted” (Sāgāra-dharmāmṛta verse 35).
