1.20

Sūtra: In the three evil destinies [...] to [...] undergo all kinds of bitter torments. Second, bodily undergoing extreme calamity. The text is divided into three: first, undergoing [rebirth in] hell; second, undergoing [rebirth as] animals; third, undergoing [rebirth as the] base and lowly. This is the first. Regarding "undergo all kinds of bitter torments in the three evil destinies": this is obtaining the vipāka-phala (maturation fruit). Because of jealousy, one shall fall into hell. Because of praising oneself and disparaging others, one shall fall among animals.
