四分律行事鈔資持記 1.1051

1.1051

八中二，初明對首。露言對眾者，謂於眾前對人作法。律云：當至一清淨比丘所，具威儀，說所犯名種，白云：大德憶念我比丘某甲犯某罪，今向大德發露，後如法懺悔。（三說。說戒時憶者，須用此法，餘時依法懺悔。）又律中，比丘於犯有疑，復逼說戒，佛言：應發露已，得聞戒，亦對人云：大德憶念我比丘某甲，於某犯生疑，今向大德發露；後無疑時，如法懺悔。（三說。已上準《注羯磨》出之。）恐下，二明心念復二，初明識罪法。律中，為在座上忽憶本罪，向比座說，舉眾鬧亂，佛令發露心念，而不出文，鈔家義立。準《羯磨》說戒字下，更加一句，云恐鬧亂眾故。亦須三說。若下，明疑罪法。應云我某甲於某犯生疑，餘詞準同。

In the eighth [part], there are two. First, clarifying [confession] facing a partner. “Revealing words facing the assembly” refers to performing the procedure facing an individual before the assembly. The vinaya states: “One should go to a pure bhikṣu, fully adopt dignified deportment, state the name and category of the offense committed, and address him, saying: ‘May the Venerable One remember me, the bhikṣu so-and-so, who has committed such-and-such an offense. I now reveal it to the Venerable One, and will subsequently repent according to the Dharma.’ (Spoken three times. One who remembers at the time of poṣadha must use this procedure; at other times, one repents according to the Dharma.)” Also, in the vinaya, when a bhikṣu has doubts about an offense and is further pressed to recite the precepts, the Buddha said: “Having revealed it, one may hear the precepts.” He also speaks facing a person: “May the Venerable One remember me, the bhikṣu so-and-so, who has conceived doubt regarding such-and-such an offense. I now reveal it to the Venerable One; later, when there is no doubt, I will repent according to the Dharma.” (Spoken three times. The above is derived according to the *Annotated Karmavācanā*.) From “Fearing...” downward, second, clarifying mental reflection, which also has two [parts]: first, clarifying the procedure for recognizing an offense. In the vinaya, because while seated one suddenly remembers an original offense and speaks to the adjacent seat, causing the entire assembly to become clamorous and disorderly, the Buddha instructed that one reveal through mental reflection, but did not set forth the text; the author of the *Transactions Manual* established it by principle. According to the *Karmavācanā*, beneath the characters “reciting the precepts,” one further adds a phrase stating, “fearing to make the assembly clamorous and disorderly.” It must also be spoken three times. From “If...” downward, clarifying the procedure for doubtful offenses. One should say, “I, so-and-so, have conceived doubt regarding such-and-such an offense,” the remaining wording being identical by analogy.
