Note - 6267Hutama: that which smashes or breaks to pieces: an apt
description of the three anti-social vices condemned. For
scandal-mongering and backbiting make any sort of
cohesion or mutual confidence impossible; and the miser's
hoards up the channels of economic service and charity,
and the circulation of good-will among men.
