四分律行事鈔資持記 2.2172

2.2172

Regarding a group of many persons: first, it generally indicates that the three ranks are identical. From "if..." onward, it specifically shows that forfeiting offenses has differences. The mention of "six kinds" is based on the earlier thullaccaya, where one does not enter into requesting repentance; therefore below it is separately noted that whether to use or discard depends on the person, meaning it is not used. As for "the rest is as above," they must be fully listed: first, requesting the repentance master; second, questioning the person beside, the phrasing of which is as in the text, this alone being different; third, stating the offense's marks; fourth, actually repenting the offense; fifth, admonishing; sixth, making a vow. (If one enters into requesting repentance, then it possesses seven rites.)
