法苑珠林 70.23

70.23

又緣其瞋惱而懷邪僻。不信正道。今身邪見遮人聽法。誦經自不飡采。死則當墮聾癡地獄。於遐劫中受諸苦惱。受苦既畢墮畜生中。聞三寶四諦之聲。不知是善。殺害鞭打之聲。不知是惡。在此之中無量生死。以本因緣。若遇微善。劣復人身。生在人中聾瞽不聞。石壁不異。美言善響絕不覺知。當知阻礙聽法皆緣邪見。

Furthermore, because of ill will and vexation, one harbors crooked perversity and does not believe in the right path. Having wrong views in this life, one obstructs others from hearing the Dharma, recites the sūtras without personally absorbing them, and upon death will fall into the Hell of Deafness and Folly, suffering all manner of distress and pain throughout long kalpas. When this suffering is completed, one falls among animals: hearing the sounds of the Three Jewels and the Four Noble Truths, they do not recognize them as good; hearing the sounds of slaughter and flogging, they do not recognize them as evil. Amidst this, they undergo immeasurable births and deaths. Through original karmic causes and conditions, if one encounters a minute amount of good, one may feebly regain a human body, but when born among humans, one is deaf and blind, unable to hear, no different from a stone wall, completely unconscious of fine speech and good sounds. One should know that obstructing the hearing of the Dharma stems entirely from wrong views.
