五中，初示處。既作單白，義是對僧。理下，次示問緣。立勝緣者，為說法開導，委示心境，及問遮等。舊云：五逆中，但不問破僧。今謂不然，雖非正破，不無伴助；如女不能破，尼受問之，足為明準。今須具問十三重難。遮中，除年歲衣鉢，但問十三耳。下指同僧，即〈受戒篇〉。

Under [point] five: First, showing the place. Since a single motion is made, in principle it is before the Saṅgha. Below 'in principle' (lǐ xià), next, showing the inquiry into conditions. Establishing superior conditions means explaining the Dharma to guide them, thoroughly showing the mind and its objects, and inquiring about impediments and so forth. Formerly it was said that among the five heinous deeds, causing a schism in the Saṅgha is simply not asked. Now I say this is not so: although it is not directly causing a schism, it does not lack complicity and assistance; just as a woman cannot cause a schism, yet the bhikṣuṇī ordination interrogates her on it, which suffices as a clear standard. Now one must fully interrogate on the thirteen grave impediments. Among the impediments, excluding age, robe, and bowl, one asks only thirteen. Below, pointing out the similarity to monks refers to the 'Chapter on Receiving Precepts'.
