[85] "Assuredly, Puṇṇa, I could not obtain from you [assent to] this: 'Enough, Puṇṇa, let that be; do not ask me that.' Nevertheless, I shall answer you. Here, Puṇṇa, a certain person develops the dog observance (kukkuravatta) fully and uninterruptedly; he develops a dog's habits (kukkurasīla) fully and uninterruptedly; he develops a dog's mind (citta) fully and uninterruptedly; he develops a dog's deportment (kukkurākappa) fully and uninterruptedly. Having developed the dog observance fully and uninterruptedly, having developed a dog's habits fully and uninterruptedly, having developed a dog's mind fully and uninterruptedly, having developed a dog's deportment fully and uninterruptedly, with the breaking up of the body, after death, he is reborn in the companionship of dogs. But if he holds such a view as this: 'By this virtue, or observance, or austerity, or holy life, I shall become a god or one among the gods,' that is wrong view (micchādiṭṭhi) on his part. For one of wrong view, Puṇṇa, I declare one of two destinations: hell or the animal womb. Thus, Puṇṇa, the dog observance, when it succeeds, leads to the companionship of dogs; when it fails, it leads to hell."
When this was said, the naked ascetic Seniya, the practitioner of the dog observance, wept and shed tears.
