佛說佛名經 30.169

30.169

「或有餓鬼身長一尺，或有餓鬼身量如人，或有如千踰繕那，或復有鬼身如雪山，裸形無衣被髮自纏，黑瘦羸瘠，唯皮褁骨肉血都無，身體麁澁猶如枯樹，恒苦飢渴，口內火然，炎出於外，心常瞋忿無有慈悲，熱悶慞惶求涼不得，既念此苦更生重苦，緣苦生苦還造苦因，於未來身復受苦報。

“Some hungry ghosts are one span in height, some have bodies the size of a human, some are as large as a thousand yojanas, and yet other ghosts have bodies as huge as snow-clad mountains. Naked without clothing, their disheveled hair wraps around them. Dark, emaciated, and withered, with only skin wrapping their bones and having neither flesh nor blood, their bodies are coarse and rough like withered trees. Constantly tormented by hunger and thirst, fire burns inside their mouths and flames shoot outward. Their minds are constantly filled with wrath without any compassion. Feverish, distressed, and panicked, they seek coolness but cannot obtain it. Reflecting on this suffering, they give rise to yet heavier suffering; conditioning suffering, they produce suffering, creating once more the causes of suffering, and in future bodies they will again undergo retributions of suffering.
