四分律行事鈔資持記 3.150

In the method of request, the indirect method is divided into two. First, requesting members of one's own assembly. Regarding robes, medicine, and bowls: the *Prātimokṣa* has five surplus items, all of which must undergo purification through giving; among robes, it collectively subsumes the three types: the ten-day robe, the month-before-the-rains robe, and the emergency robe. Next, requesting members of other assemblies: this is merely identical to an announcement; in principle, there is no complete ceremonial protocol. It only requires speaking it once.
