四分律刪繁補闕行事鈔 2.298

2.298

四提舍尼。初戒名在俗家從非親尼取食也。五緣：一俗人舍，二非親尼，三無緣，四自手取食，五咽結。《四分》：食者，正不正也；無病自取，咽咽結。文中不論自他二食，約緣通之。《五分》：在巷中犯，家內不犯，緣起如此。律不犯者：受親里尼食，若有病，若置地與，若使人授，若在僧寺與，若在村外，若尼寺內，一切皆得。

The four prātideśanīyas. The first precept is named accepting food from an unrelated bhikṣuṇī while in a layperson's house. It involves five conditions: first, a layperson's residence; second, an unrelated bhikṣuṇī; third, lacking an excuse; fourth, taking the food with one's own hand; fifth, a transgression is incurred with each swallow. The Dharmaguptaka Vinaya states: 'Food' refers to both primary and secondary [foods]; if one is unill and takes it oneself, a transgression is incurred with every swallow. The text does not distinguish between one's own food or another's food, applying to both in accordance with the circumstances. The Pañcavargika-vinaya states: 'It is an offense [if done] in an alleyway, but not an offense within the house,' as such was the origin of the rule. Under the Vinaya, one does not commit an offense if: one receives food from a related bhikṣuṇī, if one is ill, if she places it on the ground and gives it, if she has another person hand it over, if it is given in a monastic saṃghārāma, if it is outside the village, or if it is inside a nunnery—in all such cases it is permissible.
