佛說目連問戒律中五百輕重事 1.301

1.301

問：「弟子遠行寄師物、或師寄弟子，過期不還，或經年歲，可取用不？」答：「若去時無言，不得用。若知在，是有主物。若死，是僧物。」

Question: "A disciple going on a long journey entrusts property to his master, or a master entrusts [property] to a disciple; if the time limit passes without returning, or years have elapsed, may [the other] take and use it?" Answer: "If there were no instructions at the time of departure, it must not be used. If it is known that [the person] is alive, it is property that has an owner. If he has died, it is saṅgha property."
