佛說佛名經 12.21

12.21

馬頭羅剎答曰：「此諸沙門受佛淨戒而不淨持，心無慈心飲酒食肉言無罪報，食肉之罪理不可恕，以是因緣，故受此罪。」

The horse-headed rākṣasa replied, "These śramaṇas received the pure precepts of the Buddha but did not keep them purely. In their hearts there was no compassion: they drank liquor, ate meat, and claimed there is no karmic retribution. The sin of eating meat cannot be excused by principle. Due to these causes and conditions, they endure this punishment."
