hanti

य एनं वेत्ति हन्तारं यश्चैनं मन्यते हतम्

hantāram — the slayer

Whoever thinks this is the slayer, and whoever thinks it is slain, neither of them understands. It does not kill and it is not killed.

वेदाविनाशिनं नित्यं य एनमजमव्ययम्

hanti — kills

One who knows it as imperishable, eternal, unborn and unchanging — how could such a person kill, or cause anyone to be killed?

यस्य नाहंकृतो भावो बुद्धिर्यस्य न लिप्यते

hanti — kill

One whose nature is free of the sense of being the doer, whose understanding is unstained, does not kill and is not stained, even in killing.
