四分律行事鈔資持記 1.623

1.623

三依止者。佛在舍衛，僧芻比丘愚癡犯罪，共白衣雜住相親，因制此法。出過中，初明倒亂。必兼兩眾，方入此治。或下，正律本緣。但令數犯，不約對人。須下，正明立法，仍見名義。使下，顯益。

Third, subordination (niśraya-karman): when the Buddha was in Śrāvastī, the bhikṣu Saṃgharuci, being foolish, committed offenses and lived mixed together in intimate familiarity with laypeople, on account of which this legal procedure was instituted. In setting forth the faults, [the manual] first clarifies confusion. It must involve both assemblies before one enters this disciplinary treatment. The text from "or" downwards is the original occasion of the Vinaya root text: it only requires committing offenses repeatedly, without specifying the persons faced. The text from "must" downwards properly clarifies establishing the legal procedure, showing the name and meaning. The text from "causing" downwards reveals the benefit.
