Lust can harm the Dharma-body and the life of wisdom; a true practitioner must cut it off forever. The Nirvāṇa Sūtra states: 'The bodhisattva contemplates sexual craving as having nine kinds of faults and perils: first, like an outstanding debt; second, like a rākṣasī wife; third, like a poisonous snake on the stem of a wondrous flower; fourth, like unwholesome food contrary to one's constitution that one is forced to eat; fifth, like a courtesan; sixth, like a māluka plant; seventh, like proud flesh in an ulcer; eighth, like a violent gale; ninth, like a comet.' The subsequent text states: 'The tathāgatas of the ten directions describe the practice of lust unanimously as fire of desire; bodhisattvas regard desire as though avoiding a pit of fire.'" > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 8.34](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.8.34) - [Next: 8.36](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.8.36) - [Up: 8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.8) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799~en-mt.8.35) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.8.35](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1799.8.35) · Pramāṇa
