四分律行事鈔資持記 1.652

1.652

正制中，初《四分》。要字平呼，謂制約也。又下，上句立制；下句勸依。《五分》二段。上開違佛，下令順時。如今國制尼不依僧，帳藉公憑之類。下引《婆論》轉釋《五分》。《戒疏》中解，如持禁物出境之例。此多濫用，學者須辨。

In the correct regulations, first is the Dharmaguptaka-vinaya. The character yao (要) is pronounced in the level tone, meaning a restrictive contract. From "further" onward, the upper line establishes the regulation, and the lower line urges reliance upon it. The Pañcavargika-vinaya has two sections: the upper permits disobeying the Buddha, and the lower commands conforming to the times. This is like the present state regulations where nuns do not depend on monks, registers, official documents, and the like. Below, the Vibhāṣā is cited to further explain the Pañcavargika-vinaya. In the Precept Commentary it is explained: like the case of carrying prohibited goods across a border. This is frequently misapplied; scholars must discern it.
