mn41:10.1 And how is unprincipled and immoral conduct threefold by way of mind?
mn41:10.2 It’s when someone is covetous. They covet the wealth and belongings of others: ‘Oh, if only their belongings were mine!’
mn41:10.3 They have ill will and malicious intentions: ‘May these sentient beings be killed, slaughtered, slain, destroyed, or annihilated!’
mn41:10.4 They have wrong view. Their perspective is distorted:
mn41:10.5 ‘There’s no meaning in giving, sacrifice, or offerings. There’s no fruit or result of good and bad deeds. There’s no afterlife. There’s no such thing as mother and father, or beings that are reborn spontaneously. And there’s no ascetic or brahmin who is rightly comported and rightly practiced, and who describes the afterlife after realizing it with their own insight.’
mn41:10.6 This is how unprincipled and immoral conduct is threefold by way of mind.
mn41:10.7 That’s how unprincipled and immoral conduct is the reason why some sentient beings, when their body breaks up, after death, are reborn in a place of loss, a bad place, the underworld, hell.
