禪林寶訓 2.47

2.47

Fojian said: "Whoever serves as the master of a monastery must value pure and clean conduct, maintaining great trustworthiness to receive the patch-robed monks from the four quarters. If the slightest vulgar or indecent matter remains unpurged from oneself, one will instantly be spied upon by petty men. Even if one possesses the Way and virtue like the ancients, students will doubt and not believe in one." (Shantang Xiaocan)
