Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:
This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Awakened One, as I have heard:
“Diṭṭhā mayā, bhikkhave, sattā sakkārena abhibhūtā, pariyādinnacittā, kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā apāyaṁ duggatiṁ vinipātaṁ nirayaṁ upapannā.
“I have seen beings who, overcome by respect and with minds overwhelmed, upon the breaking up of the body, after death, have arisen in a state of loss, a bad destination, in a realm of downfall, even in hell.
Diṭṭhā mayā, bhikkhave, sattā asakkārena abhibhūtā, pariyādinnacittā, kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā apāyaṁ duggatiṁ vinipātaṁ nirayaṁ upapannā.
I have seen beings who, overcome by disrespect and with minds overwhelmed, upon the breaking up of the body, after death, have arisen in a state of loss, a bad destination, in a realm of downfall, even in hell.
Diṭṭhā mayā, bhikkhave, sattā sakkārena ca asakkārena ca tadubhayena abhibhūtā, pariyādinnacittā, kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā apāyaṁ duggatiṁ vinipātaṁ nirayaṁ upapannā.
I have seen beings who, overcome by both respect and disrespect, and with minds overwhelmed, upon the breaking up of the body, after death, have arisen in a state of loss, a bad destination, in a realm of downfall, even in hell.
Taṁ kho panāhaṁ, bhikkhave, nāññassa samaṇassa vā brāhmaṇassa vā sutvā vadāmi; (…) api ca, bhikkhave, yadeva me sāmaṁ ñātaṁ sāmaṁ diṭṭhaṁ sāmaṁ viditaṁ tamevāhaṁ vadāmi.
But I do not say this having heard it from another ascetic or brahmin. Rather, what I have known for myself, seen for myself, and realized for myself, that is what I declare.
Diṭṭhā mayā, bhikkhave, sattā sakkārena abhibhūtā, pariyādinnacittā, kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā apāyaṁ duggatiṁ vinipātaṁ nirayaṁ upapannā.
I have seen beings who, overcome by respect and with minds overwhelmed, upon the breaking up of the body, after death, have arisen in a state of loss, a bad destination, in a realm of downfall, even in hell.
Diṭṭhā mayā, bhikkhave, sattā asakkārena abhibhūtā, pariyādinnacittā, kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā apāyaṁ duggatiṁ vinipātaṁ nirayaṁ upapannā.

I have seen beings who, overcome by both respect and disrespect, and with minds overwhelmed, upon the breaking up of the body, after death, have arisen in a state of loss, a bad destination, in a realm of downfall, even in hell.”
Etamatthaṁ bhagavā avoca. Tatthetaṁ iti vuccati:
The Blessed One spoke on this matter. In this regard, it is said:
“Yassa sakkariyamānassa,
asakkārena cūbhayaṁ;
Samādhi na vikampati,
appamādavihārino.
“While being honored,
or shown dishonor, or by both;
for one whose collectedness does not waver,
dwelling diligently—
Taṁ jhāyinaṁ sātatikaṁ,
sukhumadiṭṭhivipassakaṁ;
Upādānakkhayārāmaṁ,
āhu sappuriso itī”ti.
That one, meditative and practicing continuously,
refined in vision and insight,
delighting in the wearing away of grasping,
is called a person of integrity.”
Ayampi attho vutto bhagavatā, iti me sutanti.
This matter too was spoken by the Blessed One, as I have heard.
