四分律行事鈔資持記 3.780

3.780

第十，《母論》五節，初作門師法。五中，第三所應，餘四不應；四中，第二非利他，餘三防媟慢。又下，令他尊敬法。五中，二是下賤；附近權豪，為他走使；四是邪命，餘三並避嫌疑。竊語，謂低聲不公顯也。入下，入俗威儀法。攝諸根者，欲境多故。有下，不宜久住法。九事，前四輕人，五是慢法，六即無信，餘三慳鄙。如市易者，希還報故。若入下，離過用心法，初示法。如下，喻顯。高山臨淵，喻卑恭攝心；月行動手，喻不著六塵。

In the tenth part, the Mātṛkā has five segments. First, the protocol for acting as a gate teacher. Among the five, the third is what should be done; the other four should not be done. Among the four, the second does not benefit others; the other three guard against familiar disrespect. Under "Furthermore...", the protocol for causing others to respect oneself. Among the five, two are base and lowly—drawing near to the powerful and noble to run errands for them; the fourth is wrong livelihood; the remaining three all avoid suspicion. "Whispering" means speaking in a low voice and not openly. Under "Entering...", the protocol of deportment when entering among the laity. Restraining the sense faculties is because sensory objects of desire are numerous. Under "There are...", the protocol for when one should not stay long. Among the nine things, the first four look down on others; the fifth is disrespect for the Dharma; the sixth is lack of faith; the remaining three are stinginess and pettiness. "Like a market exchange" is because one hopes for repayment. Under "If entering...", the mental application for avoiding faults: it first shows the protocol. Under "As...", it reveals it through metaphors. Looking down a precipice on a high mountain is a metaphor for humble reverence and restraining the mind; the moon moving while hands stay still is a metaphor for not clinging to the six sense objects.
