### [3.124](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1809.3.124)

復有二眾：「如法眾，不如法眾。何等不如法眾？眾中若非法者有力，如法者無力；非法者得伴，如法者不得伴；作非法羯磨，不作法羯磨；作非毘尼羯磨，不作毘尼羯磨；非法便行，是法不行；是為非法眾。何等如法眾？若眾中如法者有力，非法者無力；如法者得伴，不如法者不得伴；作法羯磨，不作非法羯磨；作毘尼羯磨，不作非毘尼羯磨；是法行，非法滅；是為如法眾。此二眾中，如法眾，我讚歎為尊。」佛說如是，諸比丘聞，歡喜信樂受持。有二眾：等眾，不等眾，亦如是。

> Furthermore, there are two assemblies: "A dharmika assembly and an adharmika assembly. What is an adharmika assembly? If within an assembly the adharmika individuals have power and the dharmika individuals lack power; the adharmika individuals find allies and the dharmika individuals do not find allies; they carry out adharmika karmans and do not carry out dharmika karmans; they carry out non-Vinaya karmans and do not carry out Vinaya karmans; the adharmika readily proceeds and the dharmika does not proceed—this is called an adharmika assembly. What is a dharmika assembly? If within an assembly the dharmika individuals have power and the adharmika individuals lack power; the dharmika individuals find allies and the adharmika individuals do not find allies; they carry out dharmika karmans and do not carry out adharmika karmans; they carry out Vinaya karmans and do not carry out non-Vinaya karmans; the dharmika proceeds and the adharmika is extinguished—this is called a dharmika assembly. Between these two assemblies, the dharmika assembly is the one I praise as supreme." The Buddha having spoken thus, the bhikṣus heard it, rejoiced, faithfully accepted, and upheld it. There are two assemblies: an equitable assembly and an inequitable assembly, which are also like this.
