Those who commit the five heinous sins only harm themselves; they do not sever the Three Jewels and thus do not cause profound harm. How could one who slanders this Dharma merely cause oneself and others to fall into great painful realms? They also sever the seeds of the Three Jewels in themselves and others. This is called deeply harming oneself and harming others, severing all seeds of the Three Jewels. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.245](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2813.2.245) - [Next: 2.247](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2813.2.247) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2813.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2813~en-mt.2.246) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2813.2.246](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2813.2.246) · Pramāṇa
