### [18.46](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.18.46)

第四復有眾生。兩目盲瞎都無所見。或觝樹木。或墮溝坑。於時死已更復受身。亦復如是。何罪所致。佛言。以前世時。坐不信罪福。障佛光明。縫鷹眼合。籠繫眾生。皮囊盛頭不得所見。故獲斯罪。

> "Fourth, there are sentient beings who are completely blind in both eyes and see nothing at all. They strike against trees or fall into ditches and pits. When they die at that time, they are reborn into another body that is just the same. What sin brought this about?" The Buddha said: "In their past lives, it was due to not believing in sin and merit, obstructing the Buddha's light, sewing falcons' eyes shut, caging and binding sentient beings, or placing leather bags over their heads so that they could see nothing. Therefore they incurred this sinful retribution."
