Because it is a dharma robe, its substance must be pure. Eminent monks of the Western regions mostly renounced \[all else for\] the pāṃśukūla robes. If one now wishes to conform to the Dharma, one must simply avoid improper seeking. The Shichao states: "Material obtained through pursuing profit and commercial trade does not make \[a valid robe\]." The Vinaya states: "One may not obtain it through wrong livelihood (explained below citing the Yeshu); through provocation (speaking of what another received to provoke this person to give); through displaying signs (feigning lack and insufficiency so that others take pity); or robes involving naiḥsargika-prāyaścittika offenses (the thirty robe precepts, etc.); none of these may be used to make \[a robe\]." The Yeshu states: "'Wrong livelihood' is a brief term that contains many matters. Broadly speaking, whenever one acts with an improper mind involving greed and attachment, selling the Dharma for profit, or receiving ill-gotten goods and bribes through bowing to the Buddha, chanting sūtras, fasting, or various such activities—all of these are called wrong livelihood." Nowadays, people accumulate a surplus in their bags and yet forcefully beg from others; using artful words to flatter and curry favor, they send gifts and defile families. All such kinds are termed improper gain. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.15](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1900.1.15) - [Next: 1.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1900.1.17) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1900.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1900~en-mt.1.16) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [四分律刪繁補闕行事鈔](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1804.3.24) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1900.1.16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1900.1.16) · Pramāṇa
