- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [2.255](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1804.2.255)

觀軍戒四十八。《多論》有三意：一為尊重佛法故；二為滅誹謗故；三為息諸惡，增長善法故。四緣：一是軍陣，二故往觀，三無緣，四往見犯。《四分》：陣者，若戲若真，看者皆墮。若軍在前後，下道避，不者吉羅。方便見墮。若被請去，力勢道斷等，不犯。《僧祇》：若逢軍，不作意見者，無犯。若作意舉頭窺望，見墮。若天王出，作意看者越。乃至看畜生鬪，及人諍口，看者亦越。《十誦》：為觀無常故，雖觀不犯。

> Precept 48: Viewing an army. The Sarvāstivāda-vinaya-vibhāṣā gives three purposes: first, to show reverence for the Buddha-Dharma; second, to eliminate slander; third, to put an end to all evils and increase wholesome dharmas. Four conditions: first, it is a battle array; second, going intentionally to view it; third, without reason; fourth, going and seeing constitutes an offense. The Dharmaguptaka Vinaya \[states\]: As for the array, whether in play or in earnest, those who watch all incur a pāyattika. If the army is ahead or behind, one must step off the road to avoid it; if not, it is a duṣkṛta. Seeing it through deliberate effort is a pāyattika. If one is invited to go, or if the road is cut off by force or circumstances, it is not an offense. The Mahāsāṃghika-vinaya \[states\]: If one encounters an army and sees it unintentionally, there is no offense. If intentionally raising one's head to peer and watch, seeing it is a pāyattika. If a heavenly king goes out, intentionally watching is an infraction. Even watching animals fighting or humans quarreling, watching is also an infraction. The Daśādhyāya-vinaya \[states\]: If for the sake of contemplating impermanence, though one views it, it is not an offense.
