四分律刪繁補闕行事鈔 1.70

1.70

第八僧尼二部行事通塞意。然二部同戒同制，則事法相同；行用儀式，類準僧法；具在諸門，隨事詳用。若辨成犯相者，戒本自分。隱而難知者，具在隨相。餘有約位之戒，謂輕重不同，有無互缺，犯同緣異，而是當世盛行，種相難知者；及別行、眾行等法，方列尼別行法中。此但分其宗類，猶未顯其來詮；諸有不同之意，具在大疏。

Eighth: the intent behind the feasibility and obstruction in conducting practical affairs between the two assemblies of monks and nuns. Now, where the two assemblies share the same precepts and regulations, their affairs and procedures are identical; the rituals for their practice and application are modeled on the rules for monks; these are fully set forth in the various sections, to be applied in detail according to the affair. As for discerning the characteristics that constitute an offense, the Prātimokṣa is divided of its own accord. Those that are obscure and difficult to know are fully found in the subsequent characteristics. As for the other precepts conditioned by status—meaning differences in lightness and heaviness, mutual presence or absence, identical offense under different conditions, and those widely practiced in the present age whose varieties of characteristics are difficult to know—as well as the rites for individual practice and communal practice, they are only then listed in the distinct rites for nuns. This merely classifies their essential types and does not yet reveal their full import; the reasons for their various differences are fully contained in the Great Commentary.
