Be afraid of even their shadows

People who say, ‘What does it matter if we do as we like’, know that they have strayed away from the path. All those who have abandoned virtuous behavior, we must, first and foremost, avoid. If you come across them, swerve away from them. Consider them to be very dangerous. Be afraid of even their shadows and go out of the way to avoid them.

One who is lawless, immoral, thoughtless, without any purpose who cannot distinguish between right and wrong - how will he achieve any good life.
