呪術例中，初明俗呪。越謂言乖，散謂心亂，反上專正也。故下，明道呪。羯磨下，合例。況，比也。律序顯者，彼云：神仙五通人，造設於呪術；如來立禁戒，半月半月說。（上喻下法。）必下，顯制。律云：五夏不誦戒、羯磨，盡形不得離依止，故云終身。

> In the paradigm of incantations, secular incantations are explained first. "Deviant" means speech that goes astray; "distracted" means a mind in turmoil—these are the opposite of the focused correctness mentioned above. Next, "Therefore..." clarifies the sacred incantations. "Karmavācanā..." aligns them with the paradigm. "How much more so" means by comparison. What is revealed in the preface of the Vinaya is where it states: "Rṣis, persons endowed with the five supernormal knowledges, formulated incantations; the Tathāgata instituted the prohibitive precepts, to be spoken every half-month." (The former is the metaphor, the latter is the Dharma.) "Must..." demonstrates the prohibition. The Vinaya says: "If for five summer retreats one does not recite the precepts and karmavācanā, one must not leave one's dependence as long as one lives." Thus it says "for one's whole life."
