AN 5.211 An Abuser – Akkosakasutta

 

1.1

Bhikkhū, a bhikkhu who abuses and insults their spiritual companions, speaking ill of the noble ones, can expect these five drawbacks.

“Yo so, bhikkhave, bhikkhu akkosakaparibhāsako ariyūpavādī sabrahmacārīnaṁ, tassa pañca ādīnavā pāṭikaṅkhā.

1.2

What five?

Katame pañca?

1.3

They’re expelled, cut off, shut out; or they commit a corrupt offense; or they contract a severe illness. They feel lost when they die. And when their body breaks up, after death, they’re reborn in a place of loss, a bad place, the underworld, hell.

Pārājiko vā hoti chinnaparipantho, aññataraṁ vā saṅkiliṭṭhaṁ āpattiṁ āpajjati, bāḷhaṁ vā rogātaṅkaṁ phusati, sammūḷho kālaṁ karoti, kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā apāyaṁ duggatiṁ vinipātaṁ nirayaṁ upapajjati.

1.4

A bhikkhu who abuses and insults their spiritual companions, speaking ill of the noble ones, can expect these five drawbacks.”

Yo so, bhikkhave, bhikkhu akkosakaparibhāsako ariyūpavādī sabrahmacārīnaṁ, tassa ime pañca ādīnavā pāṭikaṅkhā”ti.

1.5

Paṭhamaṁ.
