The Daśabhāṇavāra-vinaya also says: When the saddharma disappears in the era of the semblance Dharma, there are five unlawful things: First, when a bhikṣu attains slight mental quiescence, he immediately claims to have attained the holy Dharma. Second, laypeople are born in heaven, while those who have gone forth fall into hell. Third, some people abandon worldly occupations to go forth, yet break the precepts. Fourth, those who break the precepts have many helpers, while those who uphold the precepts have no helpers. Fifth, even arhats are cursed and insulted. Furthermore, there are five terrors that should be known regarding the future: First, oneself failing to cultivate body, precepts, mind, and wisdom, yet ordaining others to go forth, and being unable to cause them to cultivate body, precepts, mind, and wisdom. Second, keeping śrāmaṇeras. Third, giving reliance to others. Fourth, such a person living in close proximity with pure attendants and śrāmaṇeras without knowing the three marks, digging the earth, cutting grass, and irrigating with water. Fifth, although reciting and retaining the Tripiṭaka, mixing up the beginning and the end.
