經曰「有田憂田」至「憂念愁怖」者,述云:此次、守護苦也。有說:什者資也。在俗什物,即田宅牛馬錢財衣食六畜奴婢也。出家,即六物也。許供身者,即百一也。雖有二解,皆無據准。今即准淨傳,有云三衣十物者,蓋是譯者之意,離分為二處,不依梵本,別道三衣、折開十物,訓什為雜,未符先旨故。十三杜多唯制上行,十三資具蓋兼中下,供身百一未見律文。經雖有言,應是別時之意。由此西方俗侶官人貴勝所著衣服唯有白疊一雙,貧賤之流祇有一箇,出家法眾但畜三衣六物,樂盈長者方用十三資具。

The sūtra says: "If they have fields, they worry about the fields" down to "grieving, anxious, sorrowful, and fearful." The commentary states: Next is the suffering of guarding. Some say: "Shi" (什, sundry goods) means resources. Sundry goods in secular life are fields, houses, oxen, horses, money, wealth, food, clothing, the six domestic animals, and male and female slaves. For the renounced, they are the six requisites. Those permitted for maintaining the body are the hundred-and-one items. Although there are two explanations, neither has authoritative proof. Now, according to the transmission of Yijing, there is a reference to "three robes and ten requisites"; this was merely the translator's intention, separating them into two categories without relying on the Sanskrit original, speaking separately of three robes and dividing out ten requisites, glossing "shi" (什) as "miscellaneous" (za), which did not match the earlier intention. The thirteen dhūtas were formulated only for superior practitioners; the thirteen requisites covered the middling and inferior; as for the hundred-and-one items for maintaining the body, this has not been seen in the Vinaya texts. Although the sūtra has this statement, it must refer to a different time. For this reason, in the Western regions, the clothing worn by secular officials and noble superiors consists of only a single pair of white cotton cloths; those of the poor and humble have only a single piece. The monastic assembly of the renounced keeps only three robes and six requisites; only a householder who delights in abundance would use the thirteen requisites.
