Sakkārasutta
Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:This was said by the Blessed One, said by the Arahant, so I have heard:
“Diṭṭhā mayā, bhikkhave, sattā sakkārena abhibhūtā, pariyādinnacittā, kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā apāyaṁ duggatiṁ vinipātaṁ nirayaṁ upapannā.“Monks, I have seen beings conquered by receiving offerings–their minds overwhelmed–at the break-up of the body, after death, reappearing in a plane of deprivation, a bad destination, a lower realm, hell.
Diṭṭhā mayā, bhikkhave, sattā asakkārena abhibhūtā, pariyādinnacittā, kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā apāyaṁ duggatiṁ vinipātaṁ nirayaṁ upapannā.I have seen beings conquered by not receiving offerings–their minds overwhelmed–at the break-up of the body, after death, reappearing in a plane of deprivation, a bad destination, a lower realm, hell.
Diṭṭhā mayā, bhikkhave, sattā sakkārena ca asakkārena ca tadubhayena abhibhūtā, pariyādinnacittā, kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā apāyaṁ duggatiṁ vinipātaṁ nirayaṁ upapannā.I have seen beings conquered both by receiving offerings & by not receiving offerings–their minds overwhelmed– at the break-up of the body, after death, reappearing in a plane of deprivation, a bad destination, a lower realm, hell.
Taṁ kho panāhaṁ, bhikkhave, nāññassa samaṇassa vā brāhmaṇassa vā sutvā vadāmi;“It’s not through having heard it from another contemplative or brahman that I say,
‘I have seen beings conquered by receiving offerings–their minds overwhelmed–at the break-up of the body,
after death, reappearing in a plane of deprivation, a bad destination, a lower realm, hell.
I have seen beings conquered by not receiving offerings–their minds overwhelmed–at the break-up of the body,
after death, reappearing in a plane of deprivation, a bad destination, a lower realm, hell.
I have seen beings conquered both by receiving offerings & by not receiving offerings–their minds overwhelmed–
at the break-up of the body, after death,
reappearing in a plane of deprivation, a bad destination, a lower realm, hell.’
(…) api ca, bhikkhave, yadeva me sāmaṁ ñātaṁ sāmaṁ diṭṭhaṁ sāmaṁ viditaṁ tamevāhaṁ vadāmi.

“Yassa sakkariyamānassa, asakkārena cūbhayaṁ;Both when receiving offerings & not, Samādhi na vikampati, appamādavihārino.his concentration doesn’t waver; he remains heedful:
Taṁ jhāyinaṁ sātatikaṁ, sukhumadiṭṭhivipassakaṁ;he–continually absorbed in jhāna, subtle in view & clear-seeing, Upādānakkhayārāmaṁ, āhu sappuriso itī”ti.enjoying the ending of clinging– is called a man of integrity.
