48.11

The qianqiu has a human face and a bird's body. When it gives birth to offspring, they in turn harm their mother. Furthermore, if it practices, it can attain the fruit of an arhat. Animals do not possess such wisdom or the conception of superior and inferior, so they do not incur the guilt of the five heinous crimes (taken from the Posumituo jing, Fascicle 8).
