311“诸比丘，我不见有其他任何一个补特伽罗，像愚人末伽梨这样，行于许多人的无益与不乐，为诸天与人带来无义、无益与痛苦。诸比丘，犹如在河口撒下渔网，是为了许多鱼类的无益、痛苦、不利与灾厄。同样地，诸比丘，愚人末伽梨在世间生起，恰如一张捕人的网，我说那是为了许多众生的无益、痛苦、不利与灾厄。”

320诸比丘，正如少量粪便亦是恶臭，同样地，诸比丘，对于“有”，即便极微少，我也不赞叹——乃至弹指顷那般微少也不赞叹。
‘‘Seyyathāpi , bhikkhave, appamattakopi gūtho duggandho hoti; evamevaṃ kho ahaṃ, bhikkhave, appamattakampi bhavaṃ na vaṇṇemi, antamaso accharāsaṅghātamattampi’’.
321诸比丘，譬如极少量的尿便是恶臭的……极少量的唾液便是恶臭的……极少量的脓便是恶臭的……极少量的血便是恶臭的；正是如此，诸比丘，极少量的‘有’我亦不赞叹，乃至弹指顷那般微细的‘有’亦不赞叹。
‘‘Seyyathāpi, bhikkhave, appamattakampi muttaṃ duggandhaṃ hoti… appamattakopi kheḷo duggandho hoti… appamattakopi pubbo duggandho hoti… appamattakampi lohitaṃ duggandhaṃ hoti; evamevaṃ kho ahaṃ, bhikkhave, appamattakampi bhavaṃ na vaṇṇemi, antamaso accharāsaṅghātamattampi’’.
