- DG BB TBW © Translated from the Pali by Bhikkhu Bodhi (More copyright information)
1"Bhikkhus, possessing three qualities, one is deposited in hell as if brought there. What three? Blameworthy bodily action, blameworthy verbal action, and blameworthy mental action. Possessing these three qualities, one is deposited in hell as if brought there.
2"Possessing three qualities, one is deposited in heaven as if brought there. What three? Blameless bodily action, blameless verbal action, and blameless mental action. Possessing these three qualities, one is deposited in heaven as if brought there."
1"Tīhi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ niraye. Katamehi tīhi? Sāvajjena kāyakammena, sāvajjena vacīkammena, sāvajjena manokammena – imehi kho, bhikkhave, tīhi dhammehi samannāgato yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ niraye.
2Tīhi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ sagge. Katamehi tīhi? Anavajjena kāyakammena, anavajjena vacīkammena, anavajjena manokammena – imehi kho … pe … evaṁ sagge"ti.
Dutiyaṁ.
