In India for upoṣadha, there are upoṣadha halls; when the time arrives, they go to them. Here there is no separate place, and it is mostly held in both lecture halls and dining halls; in principle, one should follow this model. Generally, all sit on the ground. In India, rope beds are used, but generally grass is mostly spread on the ground; the reason for having a niṣīdana is entirely for spreading it upon the grass. In this land, of old there were couches. Those of grand master rank and above occasionally arranged them; below this, all sat on the ground. After the Eastern Jin, the use of couches first flourished. What monasteries set up today are mostly couches and seats; using both is also permissible. However, when carrying out the actual practice, it mostly presents inconveniences; one should adapt the practice according to the place. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.458](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1804.1.458) - [Next: 1.460](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1804.1.460) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1804.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1804~en-mt.1.459) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1804.1.459](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1804.1.459) · Pramāṇa
