Āghātavatthusutta

Suttapiṭaka · Aṅguttaranikāya · Dasakanipāta · Ekādasakanipāta · Vol. 24 · Section 79

[79] Bhikkhus, there are these ten grounds of resentment (āghātavatthu). What ten? One harbors resentment (āghāta), thinking: 'He has acted for my harm.' One harbors resentment, thinking: 'He is acting for my harm.' One harbors resentment, thinking: 'He will act for my harm.' One harbors resentment, thinking: 'He has acted for the harm of one who is dear and agreeable to me' … 'he is acting for the harm …' … 'he will act for the harm ….' One harbors resentment, thinking: 'He has acted for the benefit of one who is not dear and not agreeable to me' … 'he is acting for the benefit …' … 'he will act for the benefit ….' And one becomes angry without ground. These, bhikkhus, are the ten grounds of resentment.
