MN 57

Kukkuravatikasutta

The Ascetic Who Behaved Like a Dog

Majjhima Nikāya · Terj. Bhikkhu Sujato

mn57:3.1 Take someone who develops the dog observance fully and uninterruptedly. They develop a dog’s ethics, a dog’s mentality, and a dog’s behavior fully and uninterruptedly.

mn57:3.2 When their body breaks up, after death, they’re reborn in the company of dogs.

mn57:3.3 But if they have such a view: ‘By this precept or observance or fervent austerity or spiritual practice, may I become one of the gods!’ This is their wrong view.

mn57:3.4 An individual with wrong view is reborn in one of two places, I say: hell or the animal realm.

mn57:3.5 So if the dog observance succeeds it leads to rebirth in the company of dogs, but if it fails it leads to hell.”
