1.19
「若比丘!故自手斷人命,持刀授與人,歎譽死、快勸死:『咄!男子,用此惡活為?寧死不生。』作如是心思惟,種種方便,歎譽死、快勸死。是比丘波羅夷,不共住。
If a monk cause a man’s death, or hold a weapon and give it a man (for the purpose), or if he speak of the advantages of death, or if he ceaselessly exhort one to meet death (saying), “Tush! you are a brave man,” or use such wicked speech as this, “It is far better to die and not to live,” using such considerations as these, bringing every sort of expedient into use, praising death, exhorting to death. This monk ought to be excluded and cut off.
