後五濁下,第二七門別誡,即為七別:一不得障人出家等;二不得俗官治僧;三不得繫縛比丘;四不得非法說經,似師子身內虫;五不得驅使比丘似兵奴法;六明非法得罪制之莫為,自作罪過破壞國土也;七不得依託佛法求世名利。若為此七事,違教失理,行義不立。為是義故,佛法速滅。第一不得障人出家中為二:初總明五濁;二從比丘下,別明七事。所言五濁者,一眾生濁、二命濁、三見濁、四煩惱濁、五劫濁。二從比丘下,別明七事者,一不聽出家、二不聽造像等、三立統官、四安籍記僧、五不得比丘立地白衣高坐、六不得兵奴為比丘、七不得受別請行法。七邪法興,七正法滅。

From "In the future age of the five turbidities" onward is the second [section], which individually sets forth seven specific prohibitions, divided into seven parts: first, that one must not obstruct people from leaving the household life, and so forth; second, that secular officials must not govern the saṅgha; third, that one must not bind or fetter monks; fourth, that one must not expound the sūtras improperly, like worms within the lion's body; fifth, that one must not drive and enslave monks like soldiers and serfs; sixth, clarifying that illicit actions incur guilt and prohibiting them so that they are not committed, since creating offenses oneself ruins the realm; seventh, that one must not rely on the Buddha-Dharma to seek worldly fame and profit. If these seven things are done, one violates the teaching and loses the principle, and proper conduct and righteousness cannot stand. For this reason, the Buddha-Dharma will swiftly perish. Within the first, that one must not obstruct people from leaving the household life, there are two [parts]: first, generally explaining the five turbidities; second, from "monks" downward, individually explaining the seven matters. As for what are called the five turbidities: first is the turbidity of sentient beings; second is the turbidity of lifespan; third is the turbidity of views; fourth is the turbidity of defilements; fifth is the turbidity of the kalpa. Second, from "monks" downward, regarding the individual explanation of the seven matters: first, not allowing [people] to leave the household life; second, not allowing the making of images, and so forth; third, establishing supervisory officials; fourth, setting up registers to record the monks; fifth, that monks must not stand on the ground while laypeople sit on high seats; sixth, that soldiers and serfs must not be made monks; seventh, that they must not accept specific invitations to conduct rituals. When the seven evil practices flourish, the seven correct Dharmas perish.
