2.366

The *Vibhāṣā-śāstra* states: 'Because they previously committed predominant, violent evils—evil conduct of body, speech, and mind—they are born there.' The *Bianyi jing* states: 'There are five things by which one enters hell upon death: first, not having faith in the Three Jewels, engaging in slander, and disparaging the noble path; second, destroying Buddhist monasteries; third and fourth, [the four] classes [of disciples] mutually slandering one another, disregarding retribution and sin, without minds of reverent compliance, and recognizing no rulers, ministers, fathers, or mothers; fifth, having already attained entry into the Way, not complying with the teacher's instructions, becoming conceited, and holding in contempt and slandering one's teacher.' (The causes and effects of hell are extensively set forth in chapters and headings; this is merely an outline.)
