法律三昧經云。一學不知善權方便。輕慢師友。無有一心。其意數轉。二學不精進。無有道力。但貪名譽。望人敬待。三學所事師。不念勤苦當得成就。虛飾貢高。四學好道反持異術。比佛深經。言道同等○菩薩戒經云。為名譽聚徒。名魔弟子。

The Vinaya Samādhi Sūtra states: "First, studying without understanding skillful means, holding teachers and friends in contempt, lacking single-mindedness, and frequently changing one's intentions. Second, studying without vigor, lacking the power of the Way, merely craving fame and reputation, and hoping for others to respect and honor oneself. Third, serving a master while studying without mindfulness of diligent hardship through which attainment should be reached, being superficially pretentious and arrogant. Fourth, while studying the supreme Way, clinging instead to perverse arts, comparing them to the profound sūtras of the Buddha and claiming that the Ways are equal." The Bodhisattva Precepts Sūtra states: "Gathering disciples for the sake of fame and reputation is called being a disciple of Māra."
