2.92

卿已出家。永辭宗族。無親無疎。清淨無欲。吉則不歡。凶則不哭。超然縱容。豁然離俗。志存玄妙。軌真守樸。得度廣濟。普蒙福祿。如何無心。仍著染觸。空諍長短。銖兩斗斛。與世諍利。何異僮僕。經道不明。德行不足。如是出家。徒自毀辱。今故誨示。宜自洗浴。

'You have already renounced household life, perpetually taking leave of your kinsfolk, having neither near nor distant relations, being pure and free of desire. When good fortune arrives, you do not rejoice; when misfortune strikes, you do not weep. Transcendent and unconstrained, open and detached from the world, keep your aspiration fixed on the profound and wondrous, taking truth as your model and guarding simplicity. Attaining liberation and broadly rescuing others, all will partake of blessings and prosperity. Why then do you lack such an aim and still cling to contamination and contact, fruitlessly wrangling over long and short, grains and ounces, bushels and pecks? Contending for profit with worldly people, how do you differ from servants? With the scriptural Way unilluminated and virtuous conduct deficient, such a renunciation of household life merely brings ruin and humiliation upon yourself. Now I instruct and point this out: you should cleanse yourselves.'
