### [3.96](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1804.3.96)

七具德賞勞。《四分》有二五德。初五明病人難看而能看，表瞻病者德滿：一所不應食而欲食，不肯服藥；二看者有志心而不如實語；三應行不行，應住不住；四身有苦痛不能忍；五少能堪能而不作，仰他作，又不能靜坐止息內心。次五明看者行滿：一知病人可食不可食，可食應與；二不惡賤病人大小便唾吐；三有慈憫心，不為衣食；四能經理湯藥，乃至差死；五能為病人說法，令病者歡喜，己身於善法增益。有此五法，應與病人衣物；若小瞻視，佛判不許。《五分》多人看病，與究竟者。《僧祇》四種：一暫作，二僧次差看，三自樂福德，四邪命而作；並不合得。若看犯王法死者，亦不合賞。若欲饒益病者，欲令速差，下至然一燈遇終者，應得此物（餘如〈瞻病法〉中）。

> Seventh: rewarding labor according to possessing virtues. The Dharmaguptaka Vinaya has two sets of five virtues. The first five explain that the patient is difficult to nurse, yet the nurse is able to nurse him, demonstrating that the nurse's virtues are complete: first, he desires to eat what he should not eat and refuses to take medicine; second, the nurse has a devoted mind, but \[the patient\] does not speak truthfully; third, he does not walk when he should walk, and does not rest when he should rest; fourth, he has bodily pain and cannot endure it; fifth, he has a little capability yet will not do it, relying on others to do it, and also cannot sit quietly to calm his internal mind. The second five explain the perfection of the nurse's practice: first, he knows what food the patient can and cannot eat, and gives what is edible; second, he does not detest or loathe the patient's feces, urine, saliva, or vomit; third, he has a mind of compassion, not acting for the sake of clothing or food; fourth, he can manage broths and medicines, even until recovery or death; fifth, he can preach the Dharma to the patient, causing the patient to rejoice and his own person to increase in wholesome dharmas. If one possesses these five dharmas, one should be given the patient's robes and items; if one provided only minor care, the Buddha ruled that it is not permitted. The Pañcavargika-vinaya states that if many people nurse the sick, it is given to the one who stayed until the end. The Mahāsāṃghika-vinaya gives four types \[who cannot receive\]: first, doing it temporarily; second, being assigned by saṃgha rotation to nurse; third, doing it for the personal pleasure of merit; fourth, doing it through wrong livelihood; none of these are entitled to receive. If one nurses someone who dies from breaking royal law, one is also not entitled to a reward. If one wishes to benefit the patient and make him recover quickly, even down to lighting a single lamp until \[the patient's\] death, one should receive these items (the rest is as in the 'Protocol for Nursing the Sick').
