3.426

In the purification procedure, the intention of the prohibition has three [aspects]. First are the two intentions from the Dharmaguptaka-vinaya and the Vinayadvāviṃśatividyā-śāstra: the first is to ward off ridicule, and the second is to be distinct from worldly people. Next it cites the Daśādhyāya-vinaya, which is the intention to protect the Dharma. Below it refers to the chapter on "Subsequent Precepts". Previously it said that if the Buddha had not prohibited it, kings and ministers would have conscripted bhikṣus for labor; because the Buddha prohibited it, the minds of kings and ministers were set at rest, and so forth.
