Furthermore, the Sanqian weiyi says: "In sweeping atop a stūpa, there are five matters: first, one must not wear shoes up there; second, one must not turn one's back to the Buddha to sweep the stūpa; third, one must not take good soil from above and carry it down to discard; fourth, one must not bring down old flowers from upon the Buddha image; fifth, in the morning after passing the night, one should wash one's hands and oneself hold a clean cloth to wipe the Buddha image. There are also another five matters: first, one should first sprinkle the ground with water; second, one should make it even; third, one should wait for it to dry; fourth, one must not sweep against the direction; fifth, one must not sweep against the wind. There are also another five matters: first, one must not remove good soil; second, one should pick up grass with one's own hands; third, one should take soil from the middle and move it to lower places; fourth, one must not leave tracks where the four corners have been swept; fifth, one should sweep the area six paces before the stūpa to make it clean (this is based on business affairs, hence it is limited to six paces; if one has leisure and ease, sweeping more is even better)." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 38.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.38.6) - [Next: 38.8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.38.8) - [Up: 38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.38) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122~en-mt.38.7) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.38.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.38.7) · Pramāṇa
