This was said by the Buddha, the Perfected One: that is what I heard.
Vuttañhetaṁ bhagavatā vuttamarahatāti me sutaṁ:
“Mendicants, without directly knowing and completely understanding hate, without dispassion for it and giving it up, you can’t end suffering. By directly knowing and completely understanding hate, having dispassion for it and giving it up, you can end suffering.” The Buddha spoke this matter. On this it is said:
“When overcome by hate beings go to a bad place. Having rightly understood that hate, the discerning give it up. Once they’ve given it up, they never return to this world.”
