[1873]
S. Is there no repetition-conditionality (āsevana-paccayatā) whatsoever?
P. Yes.
S. But was it not said by the Blessed One: "Bhikkhus, taking what is not given (adinnādāna), practised (āsevita), developed (bhāvita), and made much of (bahulīkata), conduces to hell (niraya), conduces to the animal kingdom (tiracchānayoni), conduces to the realm of hungry ghosts (pittivisaya); the very lightest result (vipāka) of taking what is not given, for one who has become human, conduces to loss of wealth … the very lightest result of sexual misconduct (kāmesumicchācāra), for one who has become human, conduces to enmity with rivals … the very lightest result of false speech (musāvāda), for one who has become human, conduces to being falsely accused with what is untrue … the very lightest result of divisive speech (pisuṇā vācā), for one who has become human, conduces to division from friends … the very lightest result of harsh speech (pharusā vācā), for one who has become human, conduces to disagreeable sounds … the very lightest result of frivolous talk (samphappalāpa), for one who has become human, conduces to speech that is not accepted … Bhikkhus, the drinking of liquor and spirits (surāmerayapāna), practised … the very lightest result of the drinking of liquor and spirits, for one who has become human, conduces to madness"? Is there indeed such a discourse (suttanta)?
P. Yes.
S. In that case, there is indeed some repetition-conditionality.
