仁王般若經疏 3.173

3.173

"In the future world of the five defilements, monks, nuns, the four groups of disciples, devas, nāgas, and the eight classes, all spirit kings, kings, great ministers, crown princes, and royal princes, relying on their own high status and nobility, will extinguish and destroy my Dharma. They will openly enact restrictive laws, prohibiting my four groups of disciples, the monks and nuns, from going forth to practice the Way, and likewise prohibiting the making of Buddha images and the making of stupas. They will appoint administrative officials to control the community and establish registries to record the monks, with monks standing on the ground while white-robed [laymen] sit on high seats, making soldiers and slaves into monks, practicing the rule of separate invitations, like-minded monks forming factions, and friendly monks holding vegetarian feasts to seek fortune—just like the teachings of non-Buddhists, completely unlike my Dharma. You should know that at that time the saddharma will soon perish and not endure long."
