四分律刪繁補闕行事鈔 3.92

3.92

六人民奴婢。《四分》云：僧伽藍人入重。所有私物，不問輕重，並入私己；若僧家奴婢死者，衣物與其親屬；若無者，常住僧用。私奴死者，義準有二：若同衣食，所須資財，自取入己，隨任分處。若不同活，直爾主攝與衣食者，死時資財入親；無者，同僧院內無主物，入常住（入親者，準滅擯比丘若死，衣物入親；若僧供給，則不同之）。《毘尼母》云：若有奴婢，應放令去；若不放者，作僧祇淨人（準此放去，謂賜姓入良，後終依律）。

Sixth: people, male and female slaves. The Dharmaguptaka Vinaya states: monastery servants are classed as heavy. All personal possessions, whether light or heavy, belong to their private ownership; if a monastery slave dies, their clothes and items are given to their relatives; if there are none, they are used by the permanent resident saṃgha. When a private slave dies, there are theoretically two cases: if they shared food and clothing, their necessary property is taken by the master into their own ownership to dispose of at will. If they did not live communally, and the master merely took charge of them and provided food and clothing, at their death the property goes to their relatives; if there are none, it is treated like ownerless property within the monastery grounds and goes to the permanent resident saṃgha (going to relatives is modeled on the case where an expelled monk dies and his clothes and items go to his relatives; if the saṃgha supported him, it is not the same). The Vinayamātṛkā states: if there are slaves, they should be emancipated and let go; if not emancipated, they are made into kappiyakārakas of the saṃgha (by this standard, emancipation means granting them a surname and restoring them to commoner status; later affairs follow the Vinaya).
