7.19

又薩婆多論云。寧以身分內毒蛇口中。不犯女人。蛇有三事害人。有見而害人。有觸而害人。有齧而害人。女人亦有三害。若見女人。心發欲想。滅人善法。若觸女人。身犯中罪。滅人善法。若共交會。身犯重罪。滅人善法。復有七害。一者若為毒蛇所害。害此一身。若為女人所害。害無數身。二者若為毒蛇所害。害報得無記身。若為女人所害。害善法身。三者若為毒蛇所害。害五識身。若為女人所害。害六識身。四者若為毒蛇所害。得入清眾。若為女人所害。不與僧同。五者若為毒蛇所害。得生天上人中。值遇賢聖。若為女人所害。入三惡道。六者若為毒蛇所害。故得四沙門果。若為女人所害。於八正道無所成益。七者若為毒蛇所害。人則慈念而救護之。若為女人所害。眾共棄捨無心喜樂。以是因緣故。寧以身分內毒蛇口中。終不以此而觸女人。

Furthermore, the *Sarvāstivāda-śāstra* states: It is better to place a limb into the mouth of a poisonous snake than to violate a woman. A snake harms people in three ways: it harms people by being seen; it harms people by touching; and it harms people by biting. A woman also has three harms: if one sees a woman, lustful thoughts arise in one's mind, destroying a person's wholesome qualities; if one touches a woman, one's body commits a middling transgression, destroying a person's wholesome qualities; if one engages in sexual intercourse with her, one's body commits a grave transgression, destroying a person's wholesome qualities. Furthermore, there are seven harms: First, if one is harmed by a poisonous snake, it harms only this single body; if one is harmed by a woman, it harms countless bodies. Second, if one is harmed by a poisonous snake, it harms the indeterminate body resulting from retribution; if one is harmed by a woman, it harms the wholesome Dharma-body. Third, if one is harmed by a poisonous snake, it harms the body of the five consciousnesses; if one is harmed by a woman, it harms the body of the six consciousnesses. Fourth, if one is harmed by a poisonous snake, one can enter the pure assembly; if one is harmed by a woman, one cannot associate with the Saṃgha. Fifth, if one is harmed by a poisonous snake, one may be born among gods or humans and encounter wise ones and nobles; if one is harmed by a woman, one enters the three wretched realms. Sixth, if one is harmed by a poisonous snake, one can still attain the four fruits of a śramaṇa; if one is harmed by a woman, one derives no benefit toward the Eightfold Noble Path. Seventh, if one is harmed by a poisonous snake, people feel compassion and rescue and protect one; if one is harmed by a woman, the multitude jointly abandons him, and no one takes joy in him. For these reasons, it is better to place a limb into the mouth of a poisonous snake than ever to touch a woman with it.
