The Twenty Seventh Chapter :

The Bad Bullocks
There was a Sthavira and Ganadhara , the learned sage Garga. This leader of the Gana once made the following reflections:

'He who rides in a car, crosses a wilderness; he who rides, as it were, in (the car of) religious exercise, crosses the Samsara.
'But he who puts bad bullocks before his car, will be tired out with beating them; he will feel vexation, and his goad will be broken (at last).
'(A bad bullock) will bite its mate in the tail; it will wound the other, it will break the pin of the yoke or it will leave the road.
'It will fall down on its side, or sit down, or lie down; it will jump up or caper, or it will obstinately make for a young cow.
