They’re covetous, malicious, with wrong view. And they encourage others to do these things. Someone with these twenty qualities is cast down to hell.
Someone with twenty qualities is raised up to heaven. What twenty? They don’t kill living creatures, steal, or commit sexual misconduct.

Someone with these twenty qualities is raised up to heaven.”
