What must be done before rebirth in the hell realms becomes inevitable?

Accepted answer

Five offences in Buddhism which are said to irrevocably propel the offender into hell are:

  1. patricide,
  2. matricide,
  3. killing an Arhat,
  4. injuring a Buddha,
  5. creating schism in the Sangha

Smaller offenses like common murder, adultery etc. can still be "repaired" even if with great difficulties.
