For the seven kinds of forms of grasses and trees, destroying them oneself or instructing another to destroy them is a downfall; if doubt or perception \[of uncertainty\] arises, it is a duṣkṛta. If one drives a peg into living grass or trees, or damages them with fire and the like, all incur a downfall. If one severs living grasses and trees for the most part, it is a downfall. Cutting what is half-dry and half-living, as well as failing to say "Take note of this, look at this," all are duṣkṛtas. Cases of non-offense: if one says, "Look at this, take note of this"; if cutting dry and withered grasses and trees; if dragging timber or dragging bamboo over living grasses and trees; straightening fences and screens; clearing away moat stones; taking cow dung; if living grass covers the path and one pushes it aside with a staff; if supporting them with tiles and stones and cutting or injuring the grass and trees \[incidentally\]; if clearing the earth of a walkway, sweeping the ground of a walkway, or pounding the ground with a staff and mistakenly pushing aside and breaking living grass—there is no offense. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.96](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1806.2.96) - [Next: 2.98](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1806.2.98) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1806.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1806~en-mt.2.97) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (3) - [四分律](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.vinaya.other-vinayas.dharmaguptaka*zh-buddhayasas.12.9) — Classical Chinese - [四分律刪繁補闕行事鈔](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1804.2.188) — Classical Chinese - [四分戒本疏卷第一．第二．第三](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2787.3.24) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1806.2.97](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1806.2.97) · Pramāṇa
