The Book of the Twos Chapter Two Bound for Loss
This was said by the Buddha, the Perfected One: that is what I heard.
“Mendicants, these two are bound for a place of loss, bound for hell, if they don’t give up this fault. What two? Someone who is unchaste, but claims to be chaste; and someone who makes a groundless accusation of unchastity against a person whose chastity is pure. These are the two who are bound for a place of loss, bound for hell, if they don’t give up this fault.”
The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said:
This too is a matter that was spoken by the Blessed One: that is what I heard.
