答：「受五戒、八戒、十戒，但受三歸，即便得戒。若受具戒，要以白四羯磨，而得具戒，不以三歸。凡具戒者，功德深重，不以多緣多力，無由致之，是故三歸十僧，白四羯磨，而後得也。五戒、八戒、十戒功德力少，是故若受三歸，即便得戒，不須多緣多力。」

> Answer: "When receiving the five precepts, eight precepts, or ten precepts, simply receiving the three refuges immediately confers the precepts. If receiving the full precepts, one must rely on the motion with three announcements to obtain the full precepts, not solely on the three refuges. Generally, the full precepts have profound and weighty merit; without many conditions and great effort, there is no way to attain them. Therefore, they are obtained only after the three refuges, ten monks, and the motion with three announcements. The merit and power of the five precepts, eight precepts, and ten precepts are less; therefore, if one receives the three refuges, one immediately obtains the precepts, without needing many conditions or great effort."
