第五、執三寶物人者。《大集經》三十二云：「佛言：有二種人堪作僧事。何等為二？一者具八解脫阿羅漢人者，二者須陀洹等三果學人，堪知僧事，供養眾僧。諸餘比丘，戒不具足，心不平等，不令是人為知僧事。」《寶梁經》上卷：「佛告迦葉：我聽二種比丘得營眾事。何等為二？一者能持戒，二者畏於後世，喻若金剛。復有二種：一者識知業報，二者有諸慚愧及以悔心。復有二種：一者阿羅漢，二者能修八背捨者。迦葉！如是二種比丘，我聽營事，自無瘡疣。」聖教既然，即為永誡。懼來報者，幸自斟量。

> Fifth, on the persons who manage the property of the Three Jewels: The Mahāsaṃnipāta Sūtra, fascicle 32, states: 'The Buddha said: There are two kinds of persons capable of managing saṃgha affairs. What are the two? First, arhats endowed with the eight liberations; second, learners of the three fruits, such as srotāpannas—these are capable of managing saṃgha affairs and making offerings to the community of monks. As for all other monks whose precepts are incomplete and whose minds are not impartial, such persons should not be allowed to manage saṃgha affairs.' The upper fascicle of the Ratnarāśi Sūtra states: 'The Buddha told Kāśyapa: I permit two kinds of monks to manage community affairs. What are the two? First, those who can uphold the precepts; second, those who fear the future life as if it were adamantine (vajra). Furthermore, there are two kinds: first, those who understand karmic retribution; second, those who possess shame, conscience, and a repentant mind. Furthermore, there are two kinds: first, arhats; second, those capable of cultivating the eight liberations. Kāśyapa! Monks of these two kinds I permit to manage affairs; they themselves will be free from blemish.' Since the sacred teaching is thus, it serves as an eternal admonition. Those who fear future retribution should wisely consider this for themselves.
