四分律刪補隨機羯磨 1.59

1.59

（《四分》云：「我往說戒處不坐，為作別眾。佛言：『非法。』」《五分》：「病人背羯磨說戒。佛言：『別眾。』」義加醉人等，或自語前人不解，心境不相稱等，並名非法。故《律》中「受戒捨戒法」內云：「若眠、醉、狂、恚，不相領解，如前緣者，並不成故。」又須知別眾不足數等四句差別，臨機明練成壞兩緣。）

(The Four-Part Vinaya states: "I went to the place of upoṣadha and did not sit, so as to create a split assembly. The Buddha said: 'It is non-Dharmic.'" The Mahīśāsaka-vinaya states: "A sick person turned his back on the karman for upoṣadha. The Buddha said: 'It is a split assembly.'" By extension, drunkards and the like, or speaking when the person before one does not understand, or a mismatch between mind and object, are all called non-Dharmic. Therefore, within the "Procedures for Receiving and Renouncing Precepts" in the Vinaya, it states: "If asleep, drunk, mad, or enraged, such that they do not mutually comprehend, under conditions such as those mentioned before, none are valid." Furthermore, one must know the four permutations, such as split assembly versus not counting toward the quorum, clearly discerning both the conditions of validity and invalidity when facing a situation.)
