3.187

"Mahāmati! Lokāyata adherents speak only of the objective realm of bodily sensation. Mahāmati, there are indeed hundreds of thousands of such lokāyata adherents, but in the latter time, during the final fifty years, they will destroy the compilation [of the Dharma], because pernicious perceptions, causes, and views will be abundant, and evil disciples will accept them. In this way, Mahāmati, lokāyata treatises destroy the compilation [of the Dharma]; with various phrases and clauses, embellished with reasons and metaphors, they speak of the affairs of the tīrthikas, clinging to their own causes and conditions, without any self-realization. Mahāmati! Those tīrthikas have no treatises of self-realization; within other worldly treatises they broadly expound immeasurable hundreds of thousands of headings of matters, lacking self-realization, nor do they themselves understand foolish worldly treatises."
