Avaṇṇārahasutta Where Criticism Takes You

ā€œCatÅ«hi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ niraye. ā€œMendicants, someone with four qualities is cast down to hell.

Katamehi catūhi? What four?

Ananuvicca apariyogāhetvā avaṇṇārahassa vaṇṇaṁ bhāsati, Without examining or scrutinizing, they praise those deserving of criticism,

ananuvicca apariyogāhetvā vaṇṇārahassa avaṇṇaṁ bhāsati, and they criticize those deserving of praise.

ananuvicca apariyogāhetvā appasādanÄ«ye į¹­hāne pasādaṁ upadaṁseti, ananuvicca apariyogāhetvā pasādanÄ«ye į¹­hāne appasādaṁ upadaṁseti—They arouse faith in things that are dubious, and they don’t arouse faith in things that are inspiring.

imehi kho, bhikkhave, catūhi dhammehi samannāgato yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ niraye. Someone with these four qualities is cast down to hell.

Catūhi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ sagge. Someone with four qualities is raised up to heaven.

anuvicca pariyogāhetvā pasādanÄ«ye į¹­hāne pasādaṁ upadaṁseti—and they do arouse faith in things that are inspiring.

imehi kho, bhikkhave, catÅ«hi dhammehi samannāgato yathābhataṁ nikkhitto evaṁ saggeā€ti. Someone with these four qualities is raised up to heaven.ā€
