四分律刪繁補闕行事鈔 3.309

3.309

《毘尼母》：比丘欲行時，先掃除房內；衣服床褥，如法安置，在〈隨相〉中。去時，白和尚阿闍梨。若過十臘，有法事，必能利益者，雖師不聽，自往無過。去時，出寺外，望去處方，應思量行伴何似？正見不？有病相料理不？如我心所作不？其人威儀常攝不？非懈怠不？為利為衰？若必好者共去。復問同伴：「汝等衣鉢，乃至一切自隨之物，無所忘不？」兼復誡勅：「今當共行，汝等時言少語，守攝諸根；路中處處見者，皆令歡喜，發其善心。」諸下座皆合掌互跪，對曰：「如教歡喜奉行！」若有住止，發時，上座應遍看，無遺落物不。下座常在前，上座在後；語諸下座，各自攝心，莫令散亂。下座得病，上座應為說法，令善心相續。雖有急難，不得捨去，盡其筋力，令其得脫；乃至自力不能，應至郡縣檀越所重比丘，大臣、國王門前營理；使得解脫，莫使受苦。《僧祇》：行時先下脚跟，後下脚指。在道行欲宿，遣二年少比丘前覓宿處，索前食後食；當白非時入聚落；得已還報，應展轉相白入。《智論》：出入來去，安詳一心；舉足下足，觀地而行；為避亂心，為護眾生故。是不退菩薩相。

The Vinayamātṛkā: When a bhikṣu wishes to travel, he first sweeps clean the inside of his room; his clothing, bedding, and mats are arranged according to the Dharma, as detailed in the chapter 'According to the Manifestations'. When leaving, he informs his upādhyāya and ācārya. If he has passed ten rains and there is a matter of the Dharma that will surely bring benefit, even if his master does not permit it, going of his own accord is without fault. When leaving, once he steps outside the monastery and faces the direction of his destination, he should consider: What are his traveling companions like? Do they have right view? Can they care for one another if someone falls ill? Do they act in harmony with my own mind? Do they constantly restrain their deportment? Are they free from indolence? Will this bring benefit or decline? Only if they are certainly good should they go together. He then asks the companions: 'Have you forgotten any of your robes, bowls, or any of your personal belongings?' He also admonishes them: 'Now that we are to travel together, speak only at the proper time and say little, restraining your sense faculties; wherever people see us along the road, cause them all to rejoice and give rise to virtuous minds.' The junior monks all join palms and kneel on one knee, replying: 'We shall gladly practice as taught!' If they make a stop, when departing, the sthavira should inspect all around to see whether any belongings have been left behind. The junior monks should always be in front, and the sthavira behind; he tells the junior monks, 'Each of you restrain your minds, and do not let them become scattered.' If a junior monk falls ill, the sthavira should preach the Dharma for him, so that his virtuous mind continues unbroken. Even in times of urgency and difficulty, he must not abandon him and leave, but exhaust all his physical strength to bring about his rescue; even if his own strength is insufficient, he should go to the local authorities, to monks respected by dānapatis, or to the gates of ministers and the king to make arrangements, so that he may attain release and not suffer. The Mahāsāṃghika-vinaya: When walking, first place the heel down, and then place the toes down. When traveling on the road and wishing to spend the night, send two younger bhikṣus ahead to look for lodging and to seek the morning meal and midday meal; they must announce entering the village at an improper time; having obtained [lodging and food], they return to report, and they should notify one another in turn before entering. The Mahāprajñāpāramitā-śāstra: In entering and exiting, coming and going, be calm and single-minded; lifting and placing the feet, walk watching the ground; this is to avoid a scattered mind and to protect living beings. This is the mark of a non-retrogressing bodhisattva.
