佛說目連問戒律中五百輕重事 1.184

Language

1.184

問:「父母諸親死,比丘得與辦衣棺木埋不?」答:「都不得。若父母亡者、若病無人供養,得與乞食與半。若自能小小紡績綜事,不得與食,與食犯墮,與衣犯捨墮。況復棺木葬埋耶!」

Question: "When parents or various relatives die, may a bhikṣu provide clothing and a coffin to bury them, or not?" Answer: "He may not at all. If the parents have died or are ill with no one to support them, he may beg for food and give them half. If they are able to do even slight spinning and weaving, he must not give them food; giving food, he commits an offence of pātayantika; giving clothing, he commits an offence of naiḥsargika-pātayantika. How much less a coffin and burial!"
