四分律刪繁補闕行事鈔 1.223

1.223

次明眾法有三：一者單白。事或輕小，或常所行，或是嚴制；一說告僧，便成法事。二者白二。由事參涉，義須通和。一白牒事告知，一羯磨量處可不，便辨前務。通白及羯磨，故云白二。三者白四。受戒、懺重、治舉、訶諫，事通大小，情容乖舛。自非一白告知，三法量可，焉能辨得。以三羯磨通前單白，故云白四。若就緣約相，都合一百三十四羯磨。略言如此，更張猶有。單白有三十九；白二有五十七；白四有三十八。若通前二，則百八十四法。問：耳聞百一羯磨，今列不同者？答：此乃總標，非定如數；亦可引用《十誦》，彼則定有百一。

Next, communal rites are explained; there are three kinds: First, single-motion (jñapti-mātra). The matter may be light or minor, or frequently practiced, or strictly regulated; once it is announced to the saṃgha, the ritual transaction is accomplished. Second, motion with one resolution (jñapti-dvitīya). Because the matter involves complex concerns, in principle it must be reconciled and agreed upon. One motion specifies the matter and announces it, and one karman assesses whether it is approved or not, whereupon the preceding business is settled. Including the motion and the karman, it is therefore called jñapti-dvitīya. Third, motion with three resolutions (jñapti-caturtha). Upasampadā, confessing grave offenses, disciplinary suspension, reprimand and admonition—these matters pertain to serious or light concerns, and views may differ. Unless there is one motion to announce it and three procedures to deliberate and approve, how could it be settled? Because three karmans are added to the single motion preceding them, it is called jñapti-caturtha. If calculated according to conditions and forms, they total one hundred and thirty-four karmans. It is so stated in brief; if expanded further, there are still more. Single-motion has thirty-nine; jñapti-dvitīya has fifty-seven; jñapti-caturtha has thirty-eight. If combined with the previous two [categories of mental and face-to-face rites], there are one hundred and eighty-four rites. Question: One hears of one hundred and one karmans; why is the list here different? Answer: That is merely a general index, not an absolute fixed number; one can also cite the *Daśādhyāya-vinaya*, which definitively has one hundred and one.
