Endowed with the mental qualities of harmful conduct and views, one is reborn in hell.
Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:
This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Arahant, as I have heard:
“Dvīhi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato puggalo yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ niraye. Katamehi dvīhi? Pāpakena ca sīlena, pāpikāya ca diṭṭhiyā. Imehi kho, bhikkhave, dvīhi dhammehi samannāgato puggalo yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ niraye”ti.
“Bhikkhus, a person endowed with two |mental qualities::characteristics, traits, and tendencies of the mind, shaped by repeated actions and sustained attention, guided by particular ways of understanding; they may be wholesome or unwholesome, bright or dark [dhammā]| is cast into |hell::a place of intense suffering, lit. no good fortune [niraya]|, just as if they were carried and |placed::dropped, set aside [nikkhitta]| there. Which two? |Harmful::injurious, destructive, bad, or evil [pāpaka]| conduct and harmful |views::concepts, theories, attitudes, philosophies [diṭṭhiyā]|. Indeed, bhikkhus, a person endowed with these two mental qualities is cast into hell, just as if they were carried and placed there.”
Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:
The Blessed One spoke on this matter. In this regard, it is said:
“Pāpakena ca sīlena,
pāpikāya ca diṭṭhiyā;
Etehi dvīhi dhammehi,
yo samannāgato naro;
Kāyassa bhedā duppañño,
nirayaṁ sopapajjatī”ti.
“Harmful conduct,
and harmful views;
Whoever is endowed,
with these two mental qualities;
After the breakup of the body, that |undiscerning person::immature person, one lacking in discernment, one who has not cultivated wisdom [duppañña]|,
is reborn in hell.”
Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti.
This matter too was spoken by the Blessed One, as I have heard.
