37. Mātugāmasaṁyutta: On Females

I. Abbreviated Texts — SN37.14: Five Threats

1“Anuruddha, when females have five qualities, when their body breaks up, after death, they are reborn in a place of loss, a bad place, the underworld, hell. What five?


They kill living creatures, steal, commit sexual misconduct, lie, and consume alcoholic drinks that cause negligence. When females have these five qualities, when their body breaks up, after death, they are reborn in a place of loss, a bad place, the underworld, hell.”

1"Pañcahi, anuruddha, dhammehi samannāgato mātugāmo … pe … nirayaṁ upapajjati. Katamehi pañcahi?


Pāṇātipātī ca hoti, adinnādāyī ca hoti, kāmesumicchācārī ca hoti, musāvādī ca hoti, surāmerayamajjappamādaṭṭhāyī ca hoti – imehi kho, anuruddha, pañcahi dhammehi samannāgato mātugāmo kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā apāyaṁ duggatiṁ vinipātaṁ nirayaṁ upapajjatī"ti.

Cuddasamaṁ.

2Mātugāmo puriso ca,
āveṇikā tidhammo ca;
Kodhano upanāhī ca,
issukī maccharena ca;
Aticārī ca dussīlo,
appassuto ca kusīto;
Muṭṭhassati pañcaveraṁ,
kaṇhapakkhe pakāsito.
