(1) Here, Ānanda, a certain individual in this world kills living beings, takes what is not given, engages in sexual misconduct, speaks falsehood, speaks divisively, speaks harshly, indulges in idle chatter, is covetous, has a mind of ill will (byāpannacitta), and holds wrong view. With the breakup of the body, after death, he reappears in a state of deprivation, a bad destination, a place of ruin, hell. (2) But here, Ānanda, a certain individual in this world kills living beings, takes what is not given, engages in sexual misconduct, speaks falsehood, speaks divisively, speaks harshly, indulges in idle chatter, is covetous, has a mind of ill will, and holds wrong view. With the breakup of the body, after death, he reappears in a good destination, a heavenly world.
