四分律刪繁補闕行事鈔 2.423

2.423

三具緣成犯者。先明成犯意。業不自成，成假修造；諸緣和具，方結罪福；必片乖阻，擁結方便。故律中犯相，並託因緣；為罪居六聚，懺法又別。不同化教，但論成業；結犯已外，無論違制。

Third, the complete conditions that constitute an offense. First, to clarify the intent of constituting an offense. Karma does not accomplish itself; its accomplishment relies on enactment. Only when various conditions are fully assembled is an offense or merit established; if there is the slightest obstruction, it remains locked as a preliminary expedient. Therefore, the offense-marks in the Vinaya all depend on causes and conditions; because the offenses reside in the six categories, the repentance methods also differ. It is unlike the teachings of conversion, which only discuss the completion of karma; beyond establishing the offense, they do not discuss the violation of prohibitions.
