四分律刪繁補闕行事鈔 2.488

2.488

《善見》：若行別住人，有人請，或與人受戒，得停行法；事罷，續行之。捨時應言：「我今捨波利婆沙（三說，文如後明）」。若寺中多有比丘來去，難白，晝日得捨行法；明相未出，還須白行之。《十誦》：乃至六夜法，白僧停得二十五夜。《四分》：若大眾難集，若不欲行，若彼人軟弱，多有羞恥，應至清淨比丘所白言：「大德上座！我今日捨教勅，不作。」若欲行時，還至清淨人所白云：「我今日隨所教勅，當作。」彼得自更互作使，禮拜迎逆，亦得受沙彌淨人禮拜及使。

The Samantapāsādikā states: If a person undergoing parivāsa is invited by someone, or gives someone the upasampadā, he may suspend the practice; when the matter is finished, he resumes it. When relinquishing, he should say: “I now relinquish the parivāsa (recited three times, the text is as explained later).” If many bhikṣus come and go in the monastery, making it difficult to announce, he may relinquish the practice during the day; before the morning light appears, he must announce and resume it. The Daśādhyāya-vinaya states: Even for the six-night practice, by announcing to the Saṃgha he may suspend it for up to twenty-five nights. The Dharmaguptaka Vinaya states: If it is difficult to gather the great assembly, or if he does not wish to practice, or if that person is frail and has much shame, he should go to a pure bhikṣu and announce: “Venerable sthavira! Today I relinquish the instructions and will not perform them.” When he wishes to practice, he returns to a pure person and announces: “Today I will act in accordance with the instructions.” They may run errands for, pay homage to, and welcome one another; they may also receive homage and service from śrāmaṇeras and kappiyakārakas.
