The *Karma-vibhāga-sūtra* states: 'Fully committing ten kinds of karma leads to rebirth as an animal: first, bodily evil; second, verbal evil; third, mental evil; fourth, evil arising from greed; fifth, evil arising from anger; sixth, evil arising from delusion; seventh, reviling sentient beings; eighth, afflicting and harming sentient beings; ninth, giving impure things; tenth, sexual misconduct.' The *Bianyi jing* states: 'There are five things that cause one to become an animal: first, breaking the precepts and secretly stealing; second, failing to repay debts; third, killing living beings; fourth, disliking hearing and accepting scriptural teachings; fifth, constantly causing difficulties for fasting assemblies on various pretexts.'
