四分律行事鈔資持記 3.1015

3.1015

第四通簡中，初科。羯磨不在數者，以作眾法，必簡除故。說恣不得別者，望本眾為言。約界同僧者，文指自然，準須二界；作法一界，依僧分齊；以眾別二法，必託界故。明下，引證。彼有十七別住，如〈結界〉引。尼等下眾皆有別住，故云乃至。別界，謂各有住處，非作法結也。別施，謂施主標意施何等人，不通餘眾故。

In the fourth [section], 'General Examination': the first heading. Regarding 'not counted in the quorum of the karmavācanā,' it is because when performing monastic transactions for the saṃgha, they must be excluded. That 'the poṣadha and pravāraṇā must not be done separately' is spoken with respect to their own community. 'Treating the boundary the same as the saṃgha' indicates in the text the natural boundary, according to which two boundaries are required; the boundary established by monastic transaction follows the demarcation of the saṃgha, because communal and separate procedures must depend on a boundary. From 'Clarifying...' downward, it cites proof. In that text there are seventeen kinds of separate dwellings, as cited in the chapter on 'Boundaries.' Lower assemblies such as bhikṣuṇīs all have separate dwellings; hence it says 'and so forth.' 'Separate boundary' refers to each having their own dwelling place, not one tied by formal monastic transaction. 'Separate donation' means that a donor specifies an intention regarding which group of persons to give to, not extending to the rest of the assembly.
