If people were not afraid of death,
Then what would be the use of an executioner?
If people feared only death,
No one would dare disobey.
Again what would be the use of an executioner?
People fear death because death is an instrument of fate.
When people are killed by execution rather than by fate,
This is like carving wood in place of the carpenter.
Those who carve wood in place of the carpenter
Often lose their fingers.
