Regarding the stringency of the \*Mahāsāṃghika-vinaya\*'s intention, it states: if another's woman is drowning in water, one must conceptualize her as the earth and pull her out; if not, one offers bamboo, wood, ropes, and the like. From this we know that if she is conceptualized as a woman, no exception is granted. From "must..." downward, it concludes with an exhortation. That the two Vinayas are lenient is merely to rescue another; that the \*Mahāsāṃghika\* is stringent is to guard against harming oneself. "The accumulation of faults," etc., presents this intention of stringency. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.495](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.2.495) - [Next: 2.497](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.2.497) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805~en-mt.2.496) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.2.496](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.2.496) · Pramāṇa
