### [18.39](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1848.18.39)

攝眾生戒者，此當《涅槃》所說息世機嫌戒也，謂行非律儀，及受畜非法之物，招人譏謗，即生他罪。他罪所生本由於己，故須護之。護之即不謗，不謗即自然發心，發心即受化，受化即成攝取義也。

> "The precepts of embracing sentient beings": this corresponds to the "precept of putting an end to worldly derision and disgust" explained in the \*Mahāparinirvāṇa-sūtra\*. It means that engaging in improper conduct or accepting and keeping illicit goods invites worldly ridicule and slander, thereby generating offenses in others. Because the offenses generated in others fundamentally stem from oneself, one must guard against this. Guarding against it means they do not slander; not slandering means they naturally generate the \[wholesome\] mind; generating the mind means they accept transformation; and accepting transformation fulfills the meaning of embracing \[sentient beings\].
