30.89

「第二觀於果報者，所有諸惡不善之業，三世流轉苦果無窮，沈溺無邊巨夜大海，為諸煩惱羅剎所食，未來生死冥然無崖。設使報者轉輪聖王，王四天下飛行自在七寶具足，命終之後不勉惡趣，四空果報三界尊極福盡，還作牛領中蟲，況復其餘？無福德者，而復懈怠不勤懺悔，此亦譬如抱石沈淵求出良難。

"Regarding the second, contemplating karmic retribution: all unwholesome deeds of evil circulate through the three periods of time with endless suffering results, sinking into the vast, boundless ocean of the great night, devoured by the rākṣasas of the afflictions, with the future of birth and death dark and without end. Even if one were to obtain the retribution of a wheel-turning sage king, ruling the four continents, flying at will, and possessing the seven treasures, after life ends one does not escape the evil destinies; even when the four formless attainments and the supreme blessings of the three realms are exhausted, one returns to being a worm under the ox's collar, so what need be said of the rest? If those without merit are still indolent and do not diligently practice kṣamā, this is like holding a stone and sinking into an abyss—seeking to emerge is truly difficult."
