Answer: The periods are the same, but the meanings differ; allowing both involves no error. 'The time of robe-making' means that at the time one originally received the robe, the intention was to make a robe, and from then on one constantly maintains the intention to make a robe; even if one sews a 'horse-tooth' stitch on the robe, one does not forfeit the benefits. If halfway through the intention to make a robe is broken, one immediately forfeits the five benefits. 'The time of robe-giving' means that there is no specific intention; one directly receives the benefits of the one-month or five-month period. It is the time of receiving donations, so it is called 'the time of robe-giving'. Only when the time limit expires does one forfeit the five benefits. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.62](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1807.2.62) - [Next: 2.64](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1807.2.64) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1807.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1807~en-mt.2.63) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1807.2.63](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1807.2.63) · Pramāṇa
