Ājīvakasutta

An Ājīvaka

“Pañcahi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato ājīvako yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ niraye.
“Mendicants, an Ājīvaka ascetic with five qualities is cast down to hell.

Katamehi pañcahi?
What five?

Pāṇātipātī hoti, adinnādāyī hoti, abrahmacārī hoti, musāvādī hoti, surāmerayamajjapamādaṭṭhāyī hoti.
They kill living creatures, steal, have sex, lie, and consume beer, wine, and liquor intoxicants.

Imehi kho, bhikkhave, pañcahi dhammehi samannāgato ājīvako yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ niraye”ti.
An Ājīvaka ascetic with these five qualities is cast down to hell.”

Aṭṭhamaṁ.
