AN.5.129. Parikuppasutta ("Fatal Wounds")

Aṅguttara Nikāya ("Collections of Numbered Discourses")

“Mendicants, these five fatal wounds lead to a place of loss, to hell. What five? Murdering your mother or father or a perfected one; maliciously shedding the blood of a Realized One; and causing a schism in the Saṅgha. These five fatal wounds lead to a place of loss, to hell.”
