四分律行事鈔資持記 1.215

1.215

制法中，初緣起。佛言下，立制，初列示四相。使下，明能打人。不下，明打法。三通如後說。吹螺倣上打人，故云亦爾；彼云沙彌守園人吹。除下，簡物。漆毒樹，相傳云恐傷手故。上明布薩時。若下，明大小食時。住處多者，別房散遠故。若下，明開許。疏云：此召僧法制，非具道者所為；必無二人，方聽兼助也。

In the prescribed regulation, first is the origin. From "The Buddha said" downward establishes the regulation; first it lists and indicates the four marks. From "having..." downward explains the person who can strike [it]. From "not..." downward explains the method of striking. The three sequences are as explained below. Blowing the conch follows the person who strikes above, hence it says "likewise"; that [vinaya] states that the śrāmaṇera or garden-keeper blows it. From "except..." downward excludes materials. For lacquer-poison wood, tradition has it that it is feared it might injure the hands. The above explains the time of poṣadha. From "if..." downward explains the times of the major and minor meals. When there are many dwellings, it is because separate rooms are scattered far apart. From "if..." downward explains permissions. The Commentary states: "This regulation for summoning the saṅgha is not something to be done by one possessing the path; only when there are certainly not two persons is it permitted for him to assist concurrently."
