佛說佛名經 23.16

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [23.16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.441.23.16)

西門之中有六千沙門來入其中，罪人號咷而不肯入。馬頭羅剎手捉鐵叉，望胸而撞背上而出來入其中，鐵鳥高飛絕下來入。罪人舉頭則從口入足下而出，復有蟒蛇入其眼中，身中火然。

> At the western gate, there were six thousand śramaṇas coming to enter it. The sinners wailed loudly, unwilling to enter. Horse-headed rākṣasas held iron forks in their hands, thrusting them toward their chests and exiting through their backs as they entered inside; iron birds flew high, swooping down and entering them. When the sinners raised their heads, \[the birds\] entered through their mouths and came out from beneath their feet; furthermore, boas entered their eyes, and fire blazed within their bodies.
