When near the end of life, these five signs appear; one should know that rebirth in the animal realm is certain.” / Question: Creating what karma causes rebirth in these two destinies? / Answer: Due to stinginess and greed, one is born among hungry ghosts; due to delusion, one is born among animals. / Question: Why is one not born in hell? / Answer: Because one does not give rise to heavy anger that harms others, one is not born in hell. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2767.1.6) - [Next: 1.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2767.1.8) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2767.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2767~en-mt.1.7) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2767.1.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2767.1.7) · Pramāṇa
