Talismans, registers, petitions, and jiao sacrifices all originated from the Daoist school. Prohibition, sorcery, baleful spirits, and wildly discussing auspiciousness and inauspiciousness—treachery arose from these. Yet from Wu and Wei downward, from Jin and Song onward, instances of both Daoists and commoners practicing sorcery were by no means few. Why do you single out the multitude of monks, while saying nothing of the two teachings of Ruism and Daoism? As for the final years of Daye, Shichong, Li Mi, Jiande, Wuzhou, Liang Shidu, Lu Mingyue, Li Gui, Zhu Can, Tang Bi, Xue Ju, and their like were all secular persons; not once was there a son of Śākya among them. Why do you say nothing of them? The matters are skewed and the reasoning is narrow; you side with the wicked and envy the worthy. That you are unfaithful as a minister is clear. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 11.113](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.11.113) - [Next: 11.115](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.11.115) - [Up: 11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.11) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103~en-mt.11.114) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [破邪論](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2109.2.14) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.11.114](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2103.11.114) · Pramāṇa
