2.35

Next, [the master] directly explains the characteristics [of the precepts], saying: "Sons of the Buddha! From your present body until the Buddha-body, you must constantly practice the dānapāramitā in between, causing it to be completely fulfilled; you must not be indolent or commit infractions; if you commit an infraction, you are not a bodhisattva. Can you uphold this?" (Instructing them to answer:) "I can uphold it." (Following the previous method of reciting one's name, one should say, "So-and-so can uphold it.") "Śīlapāramitā, kṣāntipāramitā, vīryapāramitā, dhyānapāramitā, and prajñāpāramitā" (these should be recited following the pattern of dāna).
