仁王經疏 3.527

3.527

釋曰：第二、舉喻重釋。釋此喻相，如《蓮華面經》佛告阿難：「譬如師子，命終身死。若空若地、若水若陸，所有眾生不敢食彼師子身肉。唯師子身自生諸虫，還自噉食師子之肉。阿難！我之佛法，非餘能壞；是我法中諸惡比丘，破我三大阿僧祇劫積行勤苦所集佛法。」解云：彼經但喻出家比丘，不同此經通喻道俗。

The Commentary says: Second, raising a simile to reiterate the explanation. Explaining the characteristics of this simile: as in the Padmamukha-sūtra, the Buddha told Ānanda: "For example, when a lion's life ends and its body dies, whatever beings there are, whether in the air or on the ground, in water or on land, do not dare eat that lion's flesh. Only worms born from the lion's own body turn back to devour the lion's flesh. Ānanda! My Buddha-Dharma cannot be destroyed by others; it is the evil monks within my Dharma who destroy the Buddha-Dharma that I accumulated through arduous effort during three great asaṃkhyeya kalpas." The explanation states: that sūtra only uses the simile for ordained monks, not like this sūtra which applies the simile generally to both the ordained and the laity.
