By what sin is this caused?' The Buddha said: 'In their past lives, as human beings they were self-willed and did not believe good words; were unfilial to their parents, disobedient and rebellious; or served as landowners, ministers, regional governors of the four garrisons, prefects, county magistrates, or village-gate overseers and protectors, relying on their power and prestige to seize the property of the people, impoverishing the people without rhyme or reason. Due to these causes and conditions, they receive this retribution.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.13](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.3.13) - [Next: 3.15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.3.15) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909~en-mt.3.14) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (4) - [法苑珠林](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.67.25) — 道世, Classical Chinese - [諸經要集](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.18.45) — Classical Chinese - [佛說佛名經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.441.30.40) — Classical Chinese - [佛說罪業應報教化地獄經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.mahayanasutra.narrative.karmavipakanarakasutra*zh-an-shigao.1.9) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.3.14](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.3.14) · Pramāṇa
