佛說觀佛三昧海經 10.30

10.30

佛告阿難：「未來眾生其有得是念佛三昧者、觀諸佛相好者、得諸佛現前三昧者，當教是人密身口意，莫起邪命、莫生貢高。若起邪命及貢高法，當知此人是增上慢破滅佛法，多使眾生起不善心，亂和合僧顯異惑眾，是惡魔伴。如是惡人，雖復念佛失甘露味，此人生處，以貢高故身恒卑小，生下賤家貧窮諸衰，無量惡業以為嚴飾，如此種種眾多惡事，當自防護令永不生。若起如是邪命業者，此邪命業猶如狂象壞蓮華池，此邪命業亦復如是壞敗善根。」

The Buddha said to Ānanda: “If there are sentient beings of the future who attain this buddhānusmṛti-samādhi, who contemplate the major marks and secondary signs of the Buddhas, or who attain the samādhi of the Buddhas' presence, one must instruct such persons to keep their body, speech, and mind concealed and guarded, neither engaging in wrong livelihood nor giving rise to arrogance. If one engages in wrong livelihood and practices of arrogance, know that this person possesses overweening pride and destroys the Buddha-Dharma. They cause many sentient beings to give rise to unwholesome thoughts, disrupt the harmonious Saṅgha, and display anomalies to delude the masses; they are companions of the evil Māra. Such evil persons, even if they practice buddhānusmṛti, lose the taste of nectar. Because of arrogance, wherever this person is born, their body will always be base and small, born into a lowly family in poverty and adversity, adorned by countless evil karmas. Against such diverse and numerous evil matters, one should guard oneself so that they never arise. If one engages in such actions of wrong livelihood, this karma of wrong livelihood is like a mad elephant destroying a lotus pond; this karma of wrong livelihood likewise ruins and destroys one's roots of goodness.”
