尼羯磨 3.102

3.102

爾時舍利弗告諸比丘：「諸長老！若有鬪諍，舉他比丘及有罪比丘不自觀察，當知此諍遂更增長，不得如法、如毘尼除滅，諸比丘不安樂。若比丘共諍，舉他比丘及有罪者各自觀過，當知此諍不復增長深重，得如法、如毘尼除滅，諸比丘便得安樂住。諸比丘云何自觀過？有罪比丘作是念：『我犯如是事，彼見我犯非，我若不犯者，彼不得見我犯非，以我犯故，令彼見我；我今應自悔過，令彼不復以惡語呵我，我若如是，使善法增長。』是為比丘能自觀其過。云何舉他比丘自觀其過？彼作如是念：『彼比丘犯非，令我得見，若彼不犯非者，我則不見，以彼犯非故，令我得見；若彼自能至誠懺悔者，不令我出惡言，如是令善法增長。』是為舉他比丘自觀其過。若比丘有諍事，舉他比丘、有罪比丘能作如是自觀其過，當知此過不復增長，如法、如毘尼、如佛所教，諸比丘得安樂住。」舍利弗說如是，諸比丘聞，歡喜信樂受持。

At that time Śāriputra addressed the monks: "Venerables! If there is a dispute, and the monk who reproves another and the monk with the offence do not observe themselves, you should know that this dispute will grow further and cannot be eliminated in accordance with the Dharma and in accordance with the vinaya, and the monks will not be at ease and peace. If monks engage in a dispute together, and the monk who reproves another and the one with the offence each observe their own faults, you should know that this dispute will not grow further and become grave; it will be eliminated in accordance with the Dharma and in accordance with the vinaya, and the monks will dwell in ease and peace. Monks, how does one observe one's own faults? The monk with the offence thinks: 'I committed such a matter; he saw my wrong violation. If I had not violated, he could not have seen my wrong violation. Because I violated, I caused him to see me; I should now confess my fault myself so that he will no longer reprove me with harsh words. If I do this, it will cause good qualities to increase.' This is a monk being able to observe his own fault. How does the monk who reproves another observe his own fault? He thinks like this: 'That monk committed a wrong violation, causing me to see it. If he had not committed a wrong violation, I would not have seen it. Because he committed a wrong violation, it caused me to see it. If he can sincerely confess by himself, it will not cause me to utter harsh words; thus good qualities will increase.' This is the monk who reproves another observing his own fault. If monks have a matter of dispute, and the monk who reproves another and the monk with the offence are able to observe their own faults like this, you should know that this fault will not grow further; in accordance with the Dharma, in accordance with the vinaya, and in accordance with the Buddha's teaching, the monks will dwell in ease and peace." Śāriputra having spoken thus, the monks heard it and joyfully received and upheld it in faith.
