四分律刪繁補闕行事鈔 2.172

2.172

過前求雨衣過前用戒二十七（二戒並由過前，故合制）。過前求五緣成：一是雨衣，二過前求，三自為己，四彼與，五領受犯。過前用四緣：一是雨衣，二時中得，三過前受，四過前用犯。《四分》：十種衣中，比丘取雨中浴，彼應三月十六日求，四月一日用；若二過前求用，犯捨。《僧祇》：此衣不得受當三衣，不得淨施，不得著入河池中浴，小小雨時不得用。不得裸身，當著舍勒，若著餘故衣。不得著種種作事，若露地食，應持作障幕。諸師不曾見此衣，謂如傀儡子戲圍之類。今不同之，猶如三衣披用。《僧祇》：常須大雨時披浴，若雨早止、垢液者，得著入餘水中洗。《多論》云：三月十六日應求應作，乃至四月十五日亦爾。畜法者，得用浴擔持行來。長丈二尺，廣六尺。以夏多雨故，為護三衣；若行路覺欲雨，取此衣覆身上；若大雨在路，須脫三衣襞舉，著此衣行雨中。於露浴亦著此衣。此浴衣語通，以受濕故，名浴，非唯著洗浴也。若著餘衣浴，須以水薄灑此衣令濕，不得燥置，得吉，由此是浴衣故。《僧祇》：四月一日用，八月十五日當捨。《五分》若過限不作餘衣，受持，淨施；不施人者吉。《僧祇》：至時唱言：「大德僧聽！今僧捨雨衣。」三說已。不得至十六日（準此，受時亦應通唱）。律不犯者：若捨作餘用、若著浴、若浣、若舉者。

Precept 27: Seeking a rainy-season robe too early and using it too early (the two precepts are formulated together because both concern acting too early). Seeking it too early is constituted by five conditions: (1) it is a rainy-season robe; (2) one seeks it too early; (3) it is for oneself; (4) the other party gives it; (5) receiving it constitutes the offense. Using it too early has four conditions: (1) it is a rainy-season robe; (2) it is obtained during the proper season; (3) one receives it too early; (4) using it too early constitutes the offense. The Dharmaguptaka Vinaya states: 'Among the ten kinds of robes, [this is the one] a monk takes to bathe in the rain. He should seek it on the sixteenth day of the third month, and use it on the first day of the fourth month. If he seeks and uses it prior to both [proper times], it constitutes an offense requiring forfeiture.' The Mahāsāṃghika-vinaya states: 'One must not formally determine this robe to serve as one of the three robes; one must not perform vicarious relinquishment [of it]; one must not wear it into rivers and ponds to bathe; and one must not use it when it rains only slightly. One must not be naked, but should wear a loincloth or wear other old robes. One must not wear it to perform various tasks; if eating in the open, one should hold it up as a screen.' The various teachers had never seen this robe, and thought it was like the screen used in puppet plays. We now do not follow this; it is draped and worn just like the three robes. The Mahāsāṃghika-vinaya states: 'It must always be draped to bathe when it rains heavily; if the rain stops early and one is covered in sweat and grime, one may wear it into other waters to wash.' The Sarvāstivāda-vinaya-vibhāṣā states: 'On the sixteenth day of the third month one should seek it and make it, up until the fifteenth day of the fourth month it is likewise. As for the manner of keeping it, one may use it to carry things on the shoulder while bathing and traveling. It is twelve feet long and six feet wide. Because it rains often in the summer, it is used to protect the three robes; if walking on the road one senses rain coming, one takes this robe and covers one's body with it; if caught in heavy rain on the road, one must take off the three robes, fold them, store them away, and wear this robe to walk in the rain. One also wears this robe when bathing in the open. The term 'bathing robe' is comprehensive: because it absorbs moisture, it is called a 'bathing [robe]'; it is not only worn for washing and bathing. If one wears other robes to bathe, one must lightly sprinkle this robe with water to make it damp; one must not leave it dry, [otherwise] one commits a duṣkṛta, because this is a bathing robe.' The Mahāsāṃghika-vinaya states: 'It is used on the first day of the fourth month, and must be relinquished on the fifteenth day of the eighth month.' The Pañcavargika-vinaya states: 'If after the time limit has passed one does not make it into another robe, formally determine it, or vicariously relinquish it, and does not give it away to someone, it is a duṣkṛta.' The Mahāsāṃghika-vinaya states: 'When the time comes, one chants: 'Let the venerable saṃgha listen! Now the saṃgha relinquishes the rainy-season robe,' saying it three times. One must not let it reach the sixteenth day (according to this, when receiving it one should also make a general announcement).' Regarding non-offenses in the Vinaya: if one has relinquished it for another use, wears it to bathe, washes it, or stores it away.
