3.666

第二次禮中,初通示。五眾下略及塔字。相禮者,若五眾相對,則四位尊卑;二眾沙彌,同一位故;若五眾各論,自分大小;當眾同臘,則須對禮。如來及塔,五眾齊敬;一向是尊,故云通禮。塔即墳塚。初下,別列。

Second, under bowing in turn: first, it generally indicates it. Below "the five assemblies," the character for 'stūpa' is omitted. "Mutual bowing": if the five assemblies face one another, there are four ranks of superior and inferior, because the two assemblies of śrāmaṇeras share a single rank; if each of the five assemblies is considered individually, junior and senior are naturally distinguished; when members of the same assembly have the same rains-retreats, they must bow mutually. As for the Tathāgata and the stūpa, the five assemblies revere them equally; they are unconditionally venerated, hence it says "general bowing." Stūpa means a mound-tomb. From "First..." downward, they are listed separately.
