### [15.79](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.15.79)

其有從瞋心　怨害向他人  
後生墮蛇蚖　或作殘賊獸  
譬如竹樹劈　芭蕉騾懷妊  
還害亦如是　故當發慈心

> "Anyone who, through an angry mind,  
> Directs enmity and harm toward others,  
> Will in a later life fall into the state of a snake or viper,  
> Or become a cruel and ferocious beast.  
> Just as a bamboo stalk splits open,  
> Or a banana plant and a female mule die upon pregnancy,  
> Returning harm upon themselves is also like this;  
> Therefore one should bring forth a mind of loving-kindness."
