iti.32 Itivuttaka

Ethics (1st)

This was said by the Buddha, the Perfected One: that is what I heard.
“Mendicants, a person with two qualities is cast down to hell.
What two?
Bad conduct and bad view.
A person who has these two qualities is cast down to hell.”
The Buddha spoke this matter.
On this it is said:
“If a person possesses
these two qualities—
bad conduct
and bad views—
when their body breaks up, that witless person
is reborn in hell.”
This too is a matter that was spoken by the Blessed One: that is what I heard.
