法苑珠林 80.9

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [80.9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.80.9)

世多愚惑人　守慳不布施  
積財千萬億　稱言是我有  
臨欲壽終時　眼見惡鬼神  
刀風解其體　無復出入息  
貪識隨善惡　受報甚苦辛  
將至受罪處　變悔無所及

> "The world has many foolish, deluded people / Who guard their stinginess and do not practice giving. / Hoarding wealth of thousands of millions, / They claim: 'This is mine.' / When about to end their life-span, / Their eyes behold evil ghosts and spirits; / The knife-winds dismantle their bodies, / And there is no longer outgoing or incoming breath. / The craving consciousness follows good and evil, / Receiving retribution that is exceedingly bitter and harsh. / Brought to the place of punishment, / They regret and repent when it is too late."
