列示中，初文，《五分》。明威儀，化物功深；闕則二利俱失，故非大明也。《僧祇》。明行法。平視，頭不俯仰也。合身迴，不但轉項也。《中含》，初別示行法，續上《僧祇》。狩王，即師子及象王。若下，通明四儀；初明入聚，即示行法。無事處，即阿蘭若。合明食法，文見〈頭陀〉。或下，次明住坐二法。於中下，後明臥法。頭面向像，無背違故。係想明相，不著睡眠故。《僧祇》。臥法大途同上，文復詳委，但頭向不同。衣架師長，皆尊處故。合口拄齗，心易定故。念慧，所修觀行，不暫忘故。指如上者，即想明相等。《十誦》。明燈不臥，恐裸露故。

> In the detailed presentation, the first text: from the Mahīśāsaka-vinaya: it explains deportment, whose efficacy in converting beings is profound; if lacking, both benefits are lost, so it is not a great illumination. From the Mahāsāṃghika-vinaya: it explains the rule of walking: 'looking straight ahead' means the head neither bends down nor tilts up; 'turning with the whole body' means not merely turning the neck. From the Madhyamāgama: first, it specifically explains the rule of walking, continuing the above Mahāsāṃghika-vinaya: 'the king of beasts' refers to lions and elephant kings. 'If...' onwards comprehensively explains the four deportments: first, it explains entering a settlement, which shows the rule of walking; 'a place without disturbances' refers to an araṇya; the rules of eating should be explained here, but the text is found under the dhūtas. 'Or...' onwards next explains the two rules of standing and sitting. 'Among them...' onwards finally explains the rule of lying down: facing the image with head and face means there is no turning one's back; fastening one's mindfulness on the perception of light means not clinging to sleep. From the Mahāsāṃghika-vinaya: the rules for lying down are broadly similar to the above, and the text is also detailed, but the direction of the head is different: the clothes rack and preceptors are all places of honor; closing the mouth and touching teeth to gums facilitates settling the mind; 'mindfulness and wisdom' means not forgetting for an instant the contemplation practice one cultivates; 'pointing as above' refers to the perception of light and so on. From the Daśādhyāya-vinaya: not lying down with a bright lamp is for fear of bodily exposure.
