16.6

The treatise states, 'The limb of undertaking completely refers to the limb of intrinsic morality; the limb of undertaking the trainings that conform to the Dharma refers to when one undertakes the precepts, afterwards reciting the four resources and so forth; the limb of protecting the minds of others according to circumstances refers to the prohibitive precepts concerning deportment. These three constitute undertaking the precepts. The limb of following and guarding the trainings as previously undertaken': this refers to subsequent morality. That is, the two moralities of undertaking and following. Master Bei says: As explained previously in fascicle fifty-three regarding the disciplinary code, there are these four limbs, which are the four-limb precepts of a bhikṣu. Reducing six limbs to four limbs is different from this; the previous explanation is likely incorrect.
