1.15

時,有比丘說戒日,若在界內,若有戒場,不往說戒處。佛言:「應求,應喚,是我所教。若出界外,若往而不坐者,如法治之。自今已去,隨所住處有一比丘,至說戒日,當先至布薩堂中,掃灑,敷座,具水、然燈并舍羅等。若有客來,四人若過,作自說戒;乃至一人,心念清淨。若有非法別眾說戒者,如法治之。」

At that time, there were bhikṣus who, on the day of reciting the precepts, whether within the sīmā or when there was an ordination precinct, did not go to the place of reciting the precepts. The Buddha said: 'They should be sought, they should be summoned; this is my instruction. If they go outside the sīmā, or if they go but do not sit, they are to be dealt with according to the Dharma. From this day forward, wherever there is a single bhikṣu residing, when the day of reciting the precepts arrives, he should first go to the poṣadha hall, sweep and sprinkle it, spread the seats, prepare water, light the lamps, and prepare the śalākās and so forth. If guests arrive, if there are four or more persons, they perform the recitation of the precepts together; down to a single person, he makes a mental declaration of purity. If there are those who perform poṣadha with an illicit dissentient community, they are to be dealt with according to the Dharma.'
