### [13.58](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.vinaya.other-vinayas.dharmaguptaka*zh-buddhayasas.13.58)

爾時有眾多比丘欲渡恒水從此岸至彼岸，爾時眾多比丘尼亦欲渡恒水從此岸至彼岸。諸比丘尼往問言：「大德！欲何所至耶？」比丘報言：「我等欲渡恒水。」比丘尼言：「可得共伴渡不？」諸比丘報言：「諸妹在前，我等在後。若不爾者，諸妹在後，我等在前。何以故？世尊制戒不得與比丘尼同一船渡水，是故不得。」比丘尼白言：「大德是我等所尊，則應在前，我等在後。」爾時夏月天大暴雨，江水泛漲船到彼岸，未還之間日已暮。諸比丘尼即在岸邊宿，夜遇惡賊劫奪。爾時諸比丘往白佛，佛言：「直渡至彼岸者，無犯。自今已去當如是結戒：若比丘與比丘尼共期同乘一船上水下水，除直渡者，波逸提。」

> At that time, many bhikṣus wished to cross the Ganges River from this bank to the other bank, and at that time many bhikṣuṇīs also wished to cross the Ganges River from this bank to the other bank. The bhikṣuṇīs went and asked them: “Venerables, where do you wish to go?” The bhikṣus replied: “We wish to cross the Ganges River.” The bhikṣuṇīs said: “May we cross together as companions?” The bhikṣus replied: “You, sisters, go ahead, and we will follow behind. If not, then you, sisters, follow behind, and we will go ahead. Why is that? The Bhagavat laid down a precept that we must not cross the water in the same boat with bhikṣuṇīs; therefore, it is not permissible.” The bhikṣuṇīs said to them: “The venerables are whom we revere; you should go ahead and we will follow behind.” At that time, in the summer months, there was a great rainstorm, the river waters surged and flooded, and when the boat reached the other bank, before it could return, the sun had already set. The bhikṣuṇīs then lodged by the riverbank, and in the night they encountered evil robbers who plundered them. Then the bhikṣus went and reported this to the Buddha. The Buddha said: “Directly crossing to the other bank is without offence. From this day forward, the precept should be laid down thus: ‘If a bhikṣu makes an appointment with a bhikṣuṇī to board the same boat going upriver or downriver, except for directly crossing, it is a pāyattika.’”
