梵網經菩薩戒本疏 5.98

5.98

Fifth, missing conditions: If the first condition is missing, one violates the preceding precept. If the second is missing next, one incurs a grave preparatory offense, because one ought not to be devoid of understanding oneself. If the third condition is missing next, there is no offense. If the fourth is missing next, it is also a grave preparatory offense, because although one does not seek profit, expounding topsy-turvy is grave. If the fifth is missing next, one incurs a light preparatory offense, because although one seeks other profit, the exposition is not topsy-turvy. If the sixth condition is missing next, it is also a grave preparatory offense, because although the other person does not accept it, the words have already been made manifest.
