### [73.14](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.73.14)

又智度論云。佛語難提迦優婆塞。殺生有十罪。何等為十。一者心常懷毒世世不絕。二者眾生憎惡眼不喜見。三者常懷惡念思惟惡事。四者眾生畏之如見蛇虎。五者睡時心悑寤亦不安。六者常有惡夢。七者命終之時狂悑惡死。八者種短命業因緣。九者身壞命終墮泥犁獄。十者若出為人常當短命。

> Again, the Mahāprajñāpāramitā-śāstra states: 'The Buddha said to the upāsaka Nandika: "Killing living beings has ten offenses. What are the ten? First, the mind constantly harbors venom, life after life without cease. Second, living beings hate and loathe him, displeased to look upon him. Third, he constantly harbors evil thoughts and reflects on evil matters. Fourth, living beings fear him as they would see a serpent or a tiger. Fifth, when asleep his mind is terrified, and when awake he is also uneasy. Sixth, he constantly has bad dreams. Seventh, at the time of death he dies an evil death in madness and terror. Eighth, he plants the karmic causes and conditions for a short lifespan. Ninth, when his body breaks up and life ends, he falls into the Niraya hell. Tenth, if he comes forth as a human, he will constantly have a short lifespan."'
