菩薩戒義疏 2.61

2.61

第四十二、為惡人說戒。凡未受菩薩戒者皆曰惡人，若預為說，後受不能慇重故制。七眾同，大小制。序事三階：一、不得輒說，唯除國王、外道、惡人，即九十五種。「是惡人輩」下，第二、不受皆為惡人，空生空死同畜生也。「而菩薩」下，第三、舉非結過。

Forty-second, the precept against explaining the precepts to wicked persons: All who have not yet received the bodhisattva precepts are called 'wicked persons'; established because if one expounds them beforehand, they will not be earnest when receiving them later. It applies to all seven assemblies, and is prescribed in both the Great and Small. The account of the matter has three stages: First, one must not explain them recklessly, with the sole exception of kings, non-Buddhists, and wicked persons—that is, the ninety-five kinds. From "These wicked persons" below, second, those who do not receive them are all wicked persons, being born in vain and dying in vain, identical to beasts. From "Yet a bodhisattva" below, third, citing the transgression and concluding the offense.
