29.49

Kai'an says: That the Vinaya Master, with his outstanding talent and great capacity, received the prediction of Shenwu to propagate the Dharmaguptaka Vinaya was indeed fitting. Yet he separately composed a new commentary on the Contemplation Sūtra, forcibly dividing phenomena and principle, solely accommodating dull capacities, discarding standard sayings, and relying solely on his own conjectures. This was why Master Cao'an, in his Fuzheng, could not help but refute him point by point. As for the rise of those Vinaya adherents who upheld the new, it was just sufficient to support the unrighteous to resist the righteous—beware of this!
