Ekamantaṁ nisinnaṁ kho anāthapiṇḍikaṁ gahapatiṁ bhagavā etadavoca:

1.2

“Householder, when the mind is fallen, bodily, verbal, and mental deeds are fallen.

“citte, gahapati, byāpanne kāyakammampi byāpannaṁ hoti, vacīkammampi byāpannaṁ hoti, manokammampi byāpannaṁ hoti.

Someone whose deeds of body, speech, and mind are fallen will not have a good death.

It’s like a bungalow with a bad roof. The roof peak, rafters, and walls fall in.

In the same way, when the mind is fallen, bodily, verbal, and mental deeds are fallen.
