27.134

郁伽長者經云。在家修道當觀女人生厭離想。非常久想。不淨潔想。臭穢惡想。羅剎惡鬼恒噉人想。貪色難飽無止足想。惡知識妨淨行想。三惡道增憂苦不斷。目面脣口惑人之具。人為所惑。破家滅國殺親害子。眾禍之本皆由女色。

The Ugra-paripṛcchā-sūtra says: 'A householder practicing the Path should observe women and generate the thought of revulsion; the thought of impermanence; the thought of impurity; the thought of foulness and evil; the thought of rākṣasa evil demons constantly devouring people; the thought of insatiable craving for beauty without limit; the thought of bad companions obstructing pure practice; and the thought of the three evil paths unceasingly increasing sorrow and suffering. The eyes, face, lips, and mouth are instruments for bewitching people; bewitched by them, people ruin their families, destroy their states, kill their kin, and harm their children. The root of all calamities is entirely due to female beauty.'
