四分律行事鈔資持記 2.46

2.46

In the number of offenses, citing the treatise: the fifty-two offenses are because the thirteen fundamentals each have three preparatory stages; duṣkṛta is the distant, lower sthūlātyaya is the intermediate, and middling sthūlātyaya is the proximate. The character *zhi* (胝) is pronounced *zhu* and *ni* combined.
