AN 5.212 Starting Arguments – Bhaṇḍanakārakasutta

 

1.1

“Bhikkhū, a bhikkhu who starts arguments, quarrels, disputes, debates, and disciplinary issues in the Saṅgha can expect five drawbacks.

“Yo so, bhikkhave, bhikkhu bhaṇḍanakārako kalahakārako vivādakārako bhassakārako saṅghe adhikaraṇakārako, tassa pañca ādīnavā pāṭikaṅkhā.

1.2

What five?

Katame pañca?

1.3

They don’t achieve the unachieved. What they have achieved falls away. They get a bad reputation. They feel lost when they die. And when their body breaks up, after death, they are reborn in a place of loss, a bad place, the underworld, hell.

Anadhigataṁ nādhigacchati, adhigatā parihāyati, p�pako kittisaddo abbhuggacchati, sammūḷho kālaṁ karoti, kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā apāyaṁ duggatiṁ vinipātaṁ nirayaṁ upapajjati.

1.4

A bhikkhu who starts arguments, quarrels, disputes, debates, and disciplinary issues in the Saṅgha can expect these five drawbacks.”

Yo so, bhikkhave, bhikkhu bhaṇḍanakārako kalahakārako vivādakārako bhassakārako saṅghe adhikaraṇakārako, tassa ime pañca ādīnavā pāṭikaṅkhā”ti.
