The First Discourse on Anuruddha
130.
Then the Venerable Anuruddha approached the Blessed One;
having approached, he paid respect to the Blessed One and sat down to one side.
Seated to one side, the Venerable Anuruddha said this to the Blessed One -
"Here I, venerable sir, with the divine eye, which is pure and surpasses the human, mostly see a woman, upon the body's collapse at death, being reborn in a realm of misery, an unfortunate realm, a nether world, in hell.
Possessed of how many qualities, venerable sir, does a woman, upon the body's collapse at death, become reborn in a realm of misery, an unfortunate realm, a nether world, in hell?"
"Possessed of three qualities, Anuruddha, a woman, upon the body's collapse at death, is reborn in a realm of misery, an unfortunate realm, a nether world, in hell. With which three? Here, Anuruddha, a woman in the earlier period of the day dwells in a house with a mind pervaded by the stain of stinginess, at the noon period of the day she dwells in a house with a mind pervaded by jealousy, in the afternoon period of the day she dwells in a house with a mind pervaded by sensual lust. Possessed of these three qualities, Anuruddha, a woman, upon the body's collapse at death, is reborn in a realm of misery, an unfortunate realm, a nether world, in hell." The seventh.
