佛說佛名經 20.33

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [20.33](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.441.20.33)

羅剎答曰：「此諸罪人，受佛禁戒不求無上正真妙法，但覩目前信邪倒見，慠誕憍縱心懷磣毒，而無慈悲殺害眾生，節解佛種類故。以是因緣受如此罪，後得為人百生千生諸根不具，聾盲瘖瘂手脚不全，身多諸瘡常流膿血，斷諸命故當受短報。」

> The rākṣasa replied: 'These sinners, having received the Buddha's precepts, did not seek the unsurpassed, truly real, and wondrous Dharma, but merely looked at what was before their eyes, believing in heterodox and inverted views; arrogant, conceited, and wanton, their minds harboured malice and cruelty, and without compassion they killed and harmed sentient beings, dismembering the lineage of the Buddha. Due to these causes and conditions, they suffer such punishment. If they afterward attain human form, for hundreds and thousands of lifetimes their faculties will be incomplete: deaf, blind, mute, lacking hands or feet, their bodies covered with many sores constantly running with pus and blood; having severed the lives of others, they shall receive the retribution of a short lifespan.'
