Focal point of the "learning from who harmonically lives without evil" is the exhortation to humans not to waste materials as humans can't stop accumulating things far more than necessary. The path to keep the state of ''lillamurḍhyā'' happens by the means of three important qualities called ''lailādumbhāšanai'' (sg. ''lailādumbhāšanah'', lit. "that which brings to a well-lived life"): self-restraint (''demitadmālas''), moral discipline (''nailīglidaranah''), and knowledge (''tarlā''). | Focal point of the "learning from who harmonically lives without evil" is the exhortation to humans not to waste materials as humans can't stop accumulating things far more than necessary.

''Lillamurḍhyā'' may also be explained as "harmony of everything" or, in a human perspective, "state of least impact".

This is a more recent interpretation, pioneered | ''Lillamurḍhyā'' may also be explained as "harmony of everything" or, in a human perspective, "state of least impact". According to this interpretation, humans are the most flawed part of nature and to harm is their own character, so that they need to reach the state where they harm (or, in other terms, impact) the least on the other faces of nature. This is a more recent interpretation, pioneered around the mid-6th millennium by the monks of Yælklintas Monastery in the Southern Far East. | ||
Some philosophers, notably the monks of Vīramāṇaka Monastery in the Western Plain, consider ''yunya'' and ''lillamurḍhyā'' to be essentially the same thing, ''lillamurḍhyā'' being the main, abstract concept and ''yunya'' being its tangible state. The term ''lillamurḍhyāyunya'' refers to this interpretation. | Some philosophers, notably the monks of Vīramāṇaka Monastery in the Western Plain, consider ''yunya'' and ''lillamurḍhyā'' to be essentially the same thing, ''lillamurḍhyā'' being the main, abstract concept and ''yunya'' being its tangible state.
