法苑珠林 67.27

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [67.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.67.27)

第五復有眾生。謇吃瘖瘂口不能言。若有所說閉目舉手乃不言了。何罪所致。佛言。以前世時坐誹謗三尊。輕毀聖道。論他好醜。求人長短。強誣良善。憎嫉賢人。故獲斯罪。

> Fifth, there are also sentient beings who stammer, are mute, and cannot speak with their mouths. If they wish to say something, they close their eyes and raise their hands, yet their words remain unintelligible. What transgression caused this? The Buddha said: In their past lives, due to slandering the Three Honoured Ones, disparaging the holy path, discussing the faults of others, seeking out other people's defects, falsely accusing the good and virtuous, and hating and envying the worthy, they incurred this retribution.
