The affairs of the world have never been without corruptions. When rulers of the world were like Yu and Tang, there were Jie and Zhou; when ministers of the world were like the Dukes of Zhou and Zhao, there were Wang Mang and Li Si. Daoism was rooted in Laozi and Zhuangzi, yet produced Guizhen and Lingsu; Buddhism was rooted in the Sakya Sage, yet produced Qingjue and Ziyuan. Truly, all Three Teachings have their corruptions! As for the so-called "Diagram of the Four Lands," it stole the maxims of the Tiantai school and attached miscellaneous verses to them, all of which were base and vulgar words. As for the "Morning Repentance," it abridged Ciyun's Seven Repentances to make a separate text, showing no understanding of what ritual method it was based upon. The four-phrase verse chants were akin to woodcutters' songs; how could the five-tone recitation of the Buddha's name relate to the ten mindful recitations? Calling it "White Lotus" was a fraudulent borrowing from the patriarchs; claiming the title "Guide" was a usurpation equal to the Buddha. Under the false name of "pure karma," he engaged exclusively in licentious and defiled conduct. Indecent and depraved, how could it all be recounted?
