佛祖統紀 46.46

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [46.46](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2035.46.46)

述曰。佛法厄運。故必有姦人為之亂法。而主上竟受其蔽。及運當泰來故眾人交攻。主上一窹。於是降詔自洗。指靈素為姦人。而且大復佛法。初蔽後明。皆法運使之而然也。

> The commentary says: When the Buddhist Dharma faces adverse fortune, there must certainly be treacherous men who throw the Dharma into disorder, and the sovereign ultimately falls under their delusion. When fortune is destined to turn peaceful, the multitude joins in attacking them, and the sovereign suddenly awakens. Thereupon, he issues a decree to cleanse himself, designates Lingsu as a treacherous man, and greatly restores the Buddhist Dharma. Deluded at first and enlightened later—all of this was brought about by the destiny of the Dharma.
