勅修百丈清規 8.46

8.46

碑側大眾同記五事。至今猶存。可為鑑戒。并錄于左　大師遷化後未請院主。日眾議釐革山門。久遠事宜都五件。一塔院常請一大僧。及令一沙彌灑掃　一地界內不得置尼臺尼墳塔。及容俗人家居止　一應有依止及童行出家。悉令依院主一人。僧眾並不得各受　一臺外及諸處不得置莊園田地　一住山徒眾不得內外私置錢穀　欲清其流在澄其本後來紹續永願遵崇　立碑日大眾同記。

On the side of the stele, the great assembly recorded five matters together, which still remain today and can serve as a mirror and warning; they are also recorded to the left: After the Great Master's passing, before inviting an abbot, the daily assembly discussed the reform of the mountain monastery, with five matters for the long term: First, the stūpa cloister shall always invite one fully ordained monk and have one śrāmaṇera sweep and sprinkle. Second, within the monastery boundaries, nunneries, nun graves, or nun stūpas shall not be established, nor shall lay households be permitted to dwell. Third, all who rely [for refuge] and postulants leaving householder life must rely exclusively on the single person of the abbot; the monastic assembly may not accept them individually. Fourth, beyond the terrace and in other places, manors and farmlands shall not be established. Fifth, the disciples dwelling in the mountain may not privately store money and grain either internally or externally. To clarify the stream lies in settling the source; may later successors forever revere and follow this. Jointly recorded by the great assembly on the day the stele was erected.
