'Second, throughout your physical life, not stealing: this is an upāsaka precept; wherein throughout your physical life you should not steal. If you can do this, you should say: "I can." Third, throughout your physical life, not engaging in sexual misconduct: this is an upāsaka precept; wherein throughout your physical life you should not engage in sexual misconduct. If you can do this, you should say: "I can." Fourth, throughout your physical life, not speaking falsely: this is an upāsaka precept; wherein throughout your physical life you should not speak falsely. If you can do this, you should say: "I can." Fifth, throughout your physical life, not drinking liquor: this is an upāsaka precept; wherein throughout your physical life you should not drink liquor. If you can do this, you should say: "I can."' Having spoken the characteristics, he should further tell him: 'You must completely receive and uphold these five precepts of an upāsaka. You should make offerings to the Three Jewels and diligently cultivate merit and virtue, seeking the Buddha path in the distant future and realizing the states of humans and gods in the near present. If you can uphold the three extended months and six fasting days of the year, you must do so as well.' If one receives only one precept, one should remove the character "five" in the text and directly say: 'I am an upāsaka of the precept of not killing.' The rest of the text is as before with the three refuges. When the third repetition is finished, the five precepts are immediately aroused. Afterwards, with the three conclusions, they are directly entrusted to him.
