dn12:11.5 ‘King Pasenadi reigns over Kāsi and Kosala.
dn12:11.6 He alone should enjoy the revenues produced in Kāsi and Kosala and not share them with anyone else.’
dn12:11.7 Would the one who spoke like that make it difficult for yourself and others whose living depends on King Pasenadi or not?”
dn12:11.8 “They would, worthy Gotama.”
dn12:11.9 “But is someone who creates difficulties for others acting kindly or unkindly?”
dn12:11.10 “Unkindly, sir.”
dn12:11.11 “But does an unkind person have love in their heart or hostility?”
dn12:11.12 “Hostility, sir.”
dn12:11.13 “And when the heart is full of hostility, is there right view or wrong view?”
dn12:11.14 “Wrong view, worthy Gotama.”
dn12:11.15 “An individual with wrong view is reborn in one of two places, I say:
dn12:11.16 hell or the animal realm.
