集沙門不應拜俗等事 4.22

English (machine translation) 4.22

Language: English

4.22

We humbly observe that those who succeed the lineage of earlier dynasties stand above all kings. The Daoist priests and others wear the Dharma robes of Lord Lao on their bodies and transmit the Dharma words of Lord Lao from their mouths. If they perform bows in common with the worldly, we fear it would run contrary to propriety. Respectfully deliberated.
