梵網經菩薩戒本疏 3.56

3.56

第七、得報者，有三：初、通論者，《護國菩薩經》云：「菩薩有四種墜落之法：一者不恭敬他，二者背恩諂曲，三者多求利養名聞，四者詐善揚德。是為四種墜落之法。」二、別約毀他者，如《謗佛經》中有十人毀謗一辯積法師，遂令當處佛法少分陵遲。此十人後墮地獄，經無量劫，受拔舌等苦，後多生無目。末後逢釋迦佛出家，多時苦行，竟無所得，後便還落，乃至廣說。三、別約自讚，如扇提羅等五人，四人在林間坐，一人於聚落唱云：林中有羅漢，還大得供養。後墮地獄，備受眾苦。出已，為人與本施主作擔輿、持穢器人等，乃至廣如律文。

Seventh, regarding the retribution received: there are three: First, the general discussion: the Sūtra of the Bodhisattva Protecting the Nation states: 'There are four kinds of dharmas of downfall for a bodhisattva: 1. not respecting others; 2. being ungrateful and flattering; 3. seeking much material gain and fame; 4. feigning goodness to display one's virtue. These are the four kinds of dharmas of downfall.' Second, specifically regarding disparaging others: as in the Sūtra on Slandering the Buddha, where ten people slandered the single Dharma Master Pratibhānakūṭa, consequently causing the Buddha's Dharma in that locality to decline somewhat. These ten people later fell into hell, undergoing the suffering of having their tongues pulled out and so forth for immeasurable kalpas, and afterwards were born blind for many lifetimes. At the very end they met Śākyamuni Buddha and went forth as monastics, undergoing ascetic practices for a long time yet ultimately attaining nothing, and later fell back again, down to the extensive explanation [in the text]. Third, specifically regarding praising oneself: such as Śāntila and others, five people in all, where four sat in the forest and one proclaimed in the village: 'There are arhats in the forest,' thereby receiving great offerings. Afterwards they fell into hell, fully experiencing all kinds of suffering. Having emerged, they were born as humans who carried litters and handled waste buckets for their original donors, down to the extensive account as in the vinaya text.
