汾陽無德禪師語錄 3.7

3.7

As for the Vinaya master: the lineage is divided according to the Sarvāstivāda, with detailed conduct and deportment, broadly exemplifying the vinaya and strictly purifying the three realms. He investigates the depths of the seven categories and five divisions [of offenses], and exhausts the subtleties of the four pārājikas and two offenses. Keeping, violating, opening, and restricting are the true, constant norms; the three proclamations and one karma act, and the proclamation of the four forbearances are maintained. Were it not for the capability of expounding the Vinaya, how could one equally become a teacher and model?
