3.213
The Ekottarika-āgama states: Making a room and donating it to the saṃgha is called a donation to the cāturdiśa-saṃgha. The Dharmaguptaka Vinaya states: If a dānapati builds a hall for bhikṣus like a king's palace, accepting everything that is needed is permitted. When various bhikṣus wished to build rooms, the Buddha instructed that everything should be permitted and provided in accordance with the rules for building rooms. The vinaya text sets these forth in full detail, so they will not be elaborated here. If upon distribution one receives a damaged room that has not been completely repaired, and one is unwilling to take it, the Buddha instructed that one should repair it according to one's capacity, and everything needed must be supplied.
