四分律行事鈔資持記 3.114

3.114

五中，初敘謗。彼謂小事，故特指此薄於律學。然下，責非。愚教故不知所為處深，無慈故不知損物，不思出離故不知妨道。初斥不畜。縱下，次斥不用。雖下，三斥不護。然漉水一法，極為微細。人雖行之，尠能免過。《教誡儀》中，文極詳委，尋之。且下，傷歎。律中四事，破戒、破威儀、破正見、破正命。戒相麁顯，餘三微細。麁者尚破，餘三叵言，故云常沒其中。

In the fifth part, it first narrates slander. They consider it a trivial matter, hence specifically pointing this out as being deficient in Vinaya studies. Under 'However...', it reproves their fault. Being ignorant of the teaching, they do not know that the purpose is profound; lacking compassion, they do not know they harm creatures; not thinking of liberation, they do not know it obstructs the Path. First, it rebukes not possessing one. Under 'Even if...', it next rebukes not using it. Under 'Although...', thirdly, it rebukes not guarding. The single practice of filtering water is extremely minute and delicate. Although people practice it, few are able to avoid transgressions. In the *Ritual for Instructing and Admonishing*, the text is extremely detailed and comprehensive; look for it there. Under 'Furthermore...', it laments. In the Vinaya, there are four matters: breaking precepts, breaking deportment, breaking right view, and breaking right livelihood. The marks of the precepts are coarse and manifest; the other three are subtle. Even the coarse ones are broken, let alone the other three; hence it says 'always submerged among them.'
