(When the Buddha was in the country of Kauśāmbī, the king built a hut for Chanda, who cut down a sacred tree in the road; people reproached him, and \[the Buddha\] prohibited it due to the fields.) Because this has an owner, its size is determined by the other person, hence there is no \[offense of\] exceeding the measure; but fearing obstructions and perils, \[the Buddha\] specifically prohibited acting on one's own authority; hence it is divided into two precepts. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.541](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.2.541) - [Next: 2.543](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.2.543) - [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.2.542) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.2.542](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1805.2.542) · Pramāṇa
