又云。若佛子。太子欲受國王位時。受轉輪王位時。百官受位時。應先受菩薩戒。一切鬼神救護王身百官之身。諸佛歡喜。既得戒已生孝順心恭敬心。見上座和尚阿闍梨大同學同見同行者。而菩薩反生憍心癡心慢心。不起迎送禮拜。一一不如法。若欲供養時。以自賣身。國城男女七寶百物而供給之。若不爾者犯輕垢罪。

It also states: 'If, disciples of the Buddha, a crown prince wishes to assume the throne of a king, or assume the throne of a cakravartin, or when the hundred officials assume their positions, they should first receive the bodhisattva precepts. All ghosts and spirits will rescue and protect the bodies of the king and the hundred officials, and all Buddhas will rejoice. Having obtained the precepts, they should give rise to filial and respectful minds. If, seeing elders, upādhyāyas, ācāryas, great fellow students, those of the same view, and those of the same practice, a bodhisattva instead gives rise to arrogance, folly, and conceited minds, not rising to welcome, escort, or pay homage to them, each instance is not according to the Dharma. If they wish to make offerings, they should sell their own bodies, realms, cities, men, women, the seven jewels, and all sorts of things to supply them. If not doing so, they commit a minor defilement offence.'
