1.532

二加法差遣者。當上座差眾中二人,具兩種五德者,不須喚來,立前而作。此是別眾,往往而然,直在本座而坐。作羯磨者索欲問和,其欲法云:「大德僧聽!比丘某甲,我受彼欲自恣。彼如法僧事,與欲自恣。」此律自恣開欲,不同他部,故重示之。作者知之,問和答云:「自恣羯磨!」亦有通別,如上。應云:「大德僧聽!若僧時到僧忍聽:僧差比丘某甲、某甲,作受自恣人。白如是。」「大德僧聽!僧差比丘某甲、某甲,作受自恣人。誰諸長老忍僧差比丘某甲、某甲作受自恣人者,默然;誰不忍者,說。僧已忍,差比丘某甲、某甲,作受自恣人竟。僧忍,默然故。是事如是持。」

Second is the formal procedure of appointment. The elder should appoint two persons in the community who possess the two sets of five virtues; it is not necessary to call them forward to stand in front to perform it. That applies to a separate community, which occurs occasionally; they simply sit in their original seats. The one performing the karman demands chanda and asks whether the assembly is harmonious. The chanda formula says: "May the venerable saṃgha listen! Bhikṣu so-and-so—I receive his chanda for pravāraṇā. For his Dharmic saṃgha affairs, he grants his chanda for pravāraṇā." In this Vinaya, pravāraṇā allows chanda, unlike other Vinayas, so this is pointed out again. The officiant should know this; asking whether they are harmonious, the reply is: "A pravāraṇā karman!" There are also general and specific [forms], as above. One should say: "May the venerable saṃgha listen! If the time has arrived for the saṃgha, may the saṃgha grant permission to listen: The saṃgha appoints bhikṣu so-and-so and bhikṣu so-and-so to act as the persons who receive pravāraṇā. Such is the motion." "May the venerable saṃgha listen! The saṃgha appoints bhikṣu so-and-so and bhikṣu so-and-so to act as the persons who receive pravāraṇā. Whichever elders approve of the saṃgha's appointing bhikṣu so-and-so and bhikṣu so-and-so to act as the persons who receive pravāraṇā, remain silent; whoever does not approve, speak! The saṃgha has already approved and appointed bhikṣu so-and-so and bhikṣu so-and-so to act as the persons who receive pravāraṇā. Because the saṃgha approves, it is silent. Thus is this matter upheld."
