Nirayavagga · Hell · Gāthā 308

Yo duṭṭhena mana saññā, pHarassati micchādiṭṭhi; kāme patthayaṃ yāti, kāmā hi māra bandhanā.

Yo duṭṭhena mana saññā, pHarassati micchādiṭṭhi; kāme patthayaṃ yāti, kāmā hi māra bandhanā.

With corrupted mind and wrong view, one reaches for pleasures; who seeks pleasures goes to hell, for pleasures are Mara’s bonds.

This verse from the Nirayavagga (Hell) addresses the consequences of attachment and desire, and the path to liberation through ethics and wisdom.
