四分律刪繁補闕行事鈔 2.517

2.517

初中，三十戒內，且約僧犯；尼非無懺，清心者希。僧捨墮中，自他分二：一者自捨，如乞蠶綿，用為衣服，但自斬壞，不須對境。二者對他，道俗分二：兩種寶戒，必捨俗人；餘二十七，則對道捨。通局分二：乞鉢一戒，要本住處，又在僧中行鉢等法，違則不成；餘二十六，處通彼此，人含僧別。各有意致，非《鈔》者懷。

Under the first: within the thirty precepts, we provisionally treat the offenses of monks; it is not that nuns lack confession, but those with pure minds are rare. In the niḥsargika-pāyattika of monks, self and other are divided into two: First, self-relinquishment: as in begging for silkworm floss to make into clothing, one merely cuts and destroys it oneself without needing an object. Second, before others, where monastics and laity are divided into two: the two precepts regarding precious items must be relinquished to a layperson; the remaining twenty-seven are relinquished before monastics. Universal and restricted are divided into two: the single precept on begging for a bowl requires one's original dwelling place, and the procedures of circulating the bowl must be performed within the saṃgha—if violated, it is invalid; the remaining twenty-six are universal to both places, and the persons include the saṃgha and individuals. Each has its underlying intention, which is not the primary concern of this manual.
