女人

Từ Điển Thuật Ngữ Phật Học Hán Ngữ

Woman, described in the Nirvāṇa sūtra 浬槃經 9 as the “abode of all evil”, 一切女人皆是衆惡之所住處 The 智度論 14 says: 大火燒人是猶可近, 淸風無形是亦可捉, 蚖蛇含毒猶亦可觸, 女人之心不可得實 “Fierce fire that would burn men may yet be approached, clear breezes without form may yet be grasped, cobras that harbour poison may yet be touched, but a woman’s heart is never to be relied upon.” The Buddha ordered Ānanda: “Do not Look at a woman; if you must, then do not talk with her; if you must, then call on the Buddha with all your mind”— an evidently apocryphal statement of 文句 8.
