What sin has caused this?" The Buddha said: "In former lives, they drank alcohol and were wildly intoxicated, committing thirty-six transgressions, and later received an idiotic body, just like a drunkard unable to distinguish the honorable from the lowly. Due to this evil karma, they receive this retribution of sin." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.36](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.3.36) - [Next: 3.38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.3.38) - [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.3.37) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (4) - [法苑珠林](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.67.37) — 道世, Classical Chinese - [諸經要集](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.18.57) — Classical Chinese - [佛說佛名經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.441.30.62) — 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.1.33) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.3.37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1909.3.37) · Pramāṇa
