佛說目連問戒律中五百輕重事經 2.87

2.87

問：「比丘得躑過小水小坑不？」答：「不得。犯墮。昔有一優婆塞，請一比丘，欲與作一領好衣，比丘即隨去。中道有一小水，比丘便躑度。此優婆塞便嫌，心念：『我謂是好比丘，欲與一領好衣。而更跳躑溝坑，我歸當與半領衣。』此是無著，知其人念。前行見水，復故躑過。賢者復念：『我歸當與一張麁㲲。』前行見水復躑過。賢者復念：『我歸當與一頓食。』無著復知其念，前行見水，便舉衣涉渡。賢者問比丘：『何以不躑渡？』比丘言：『卿前與我一領衣已，一躑過水正得半領。復一躑，正得一張麁㲲。復一躑，正得一頓食。我今所不躑者，恐復失食。』賢者乃知是得道人，便向懺悔，將歸大供養。以此驗之，知比丘不得躑過坑水。」

Question: "May a bhikṣu leap across a small stream or a small ditch?" Answer: "He may not; doing so incurs a pāyattika. Formerly, an upāsaka invited a bhikṣu, intending to make him a fine robe, and the bhikṣu followed him. On the way, there was a small stream, and the bhikṣu leaped across. This upāsaka was displeased and thought to himself: 'I regarded him as a fine bhikṣu and wanted to give him a fine robe. Yet he jumps and leaps over ditches and pits; when I return, I shall give him only half a robe.' This [bhikṣu] was an arhat and knew the man's thoughts. Walking ahead, seeing water, he deliberately leaped across again. The worthy man thought again: 'When I return, I shall give him a piece of coarse cotton cloth.' Walking ahead, seeing water, he leaped across again. The worthy man thought again: 'When I return, I shall give him a single meal.' The arhat again knew his thoughts. Walking ahead, seeing water, he lifted his robes and waded across. The worthy man asked the bhikṣu: 'Why did you not leap across?' The bhikṣu said: 'Sir, earlier you promised me a robe; after one leap across the water, it became only half a robe. With another leap, it became only a piece of coarse cotton cloth. With yet another leap, it became only a single meal. The reason I do not leap now is that I fear losing even the meal.' The worthy man then realized he was one who had attained the path; he repented before him, took him back, and offered him great hospitality. From this verification, one knows that a bhikṣu may not leap across pits and streams."
