法苑珠林 92.36

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [92.36](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.92.36)

爾時世尊復告僧護。汝見第一駝者。是地獄人迦葉佛時。是出家人寺中上座。長受食分。或得一人二人食分。持律比丘如法教授。上座之法不應如是。時老比丘答律師言。汝無所知。聲如驝駝。我於眾中身為上座。呪願說法。或時作唄。計勞應得。汝等何故常瞋責我。以是因緣。入地獄中受驝駝身。火燒號噭受苦。至今不息。

> Then the World-Honoured One further told Saṃgharakṣita: 'The first camel you saw was a person in hell. In the time of Kāśyapa Buddha, he was a renunciant and a senior elder in the temple. He regularly took extra food portions, sometimes taking portions meant for one or two other people. When a Vinaya master instructed him in accordance with the Dharma, saying that the conduct of an elder should not be like this, the old monk answered the Vinaya master, saying, "You know nothing! Your voice sounds like a camel. I am an elder among the Saṃgha; I chant blessings, expound the Dharma, and at times chant hymns. Reckoning my toil, I deserve to receive this. Why do you constantly get angry and reprove me?" Because of these causes and conditions, he entered hell and took the body of a camel, wailing as he is burned by fire and enduring suffering without ceasing down to the present day.'
