佛說仁王般若波羅蜜經 2.52

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [2.52](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.245.2.52)

「大王！未來世中，一切國王太子王子四部弟子，橫與佛弟子書記制戒，如白衣法，如兵奴法，若我弟子比丘比丘尼，立籍為官所使，都非我弟子，是兵奴法。立統官攝僧典主僧籍，大小僧統，共相攝縛，如獄囚法，兵奴之法。當爾之時，佛法不久。

> "Great King! In future ages, all kings, crown princes, royal princes, and the fourfold assembly of disciples will outrageously issue registers and restrictive precepts for the Buddha's disciples, just like the laws for white-robed laity and the laws for soldiers and slaves. If my disciples, the monks and nuns, are entered on registers to be used by officials, they are not my disciples at all; this is the law for soldiers and slaves. They will establish official controllers to oversee the Saṅgha and administer the monastic registers; monastic controllers, great and small, will mutually constrain and bind each other, just like the laws for prison inmates and the laws for soldiers and slaves. At that time, the Buddha-Dharma will not last long.
