Next citing the Mahāvibhāṣā\[-śāstra\]: the explicit text allows demarcating all-inclusively. A settlement is a village; the name applies to both large and small; here it is taken as a place inhabited by men and women, down to a single household, which is called a settlement. Afterwards citing the Dharmaguptaka\[-vinaya\]: this is the text on subsuming robes. The Commentary says: 'The Dharmaguptaka explicit text excludes village and outside-the-village; this makes it clear that subsuming the saṃgha does not exclude villages.' (Those who cite the text on identity of both ritual and food are incorrect; that text only clarifies the boundary markers.) 'Village takes' in Sheng's edition reads 'takes village'; or it is said to be a scribal error and should be the character 'settlement' (聚). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.506](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.1.506) - [Next: 1.508](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.1.508) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805~en-mt.1.507) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.1.507](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.1.507) · Pramāṇa
