Householders saw him from afar, thought he was a king or a great minister, and stepped aside in fear. Looking closely, they realized he was a monk, and reported it to the Buddha. The Buddha said: 'A monk should not walk on the road carrying a parasol, nor should he hang one up. When it rains, it is permitted to make a parasol inside the monastery out of tree bark, leaves, or bamboo.' He also did not allow holding a king's large fan: 'If troubled by heat while walking, it is permitted to make a fan out of tree leaves and miscellaneous materials.' At that time, the monks were troubled by insects, grass, dust, and dew falling on their bodies. The Buddha said: 'It is permitted to make a whisk, whether from grass, tree bark and leaves, or thread, or scraps of cut silk.' At that time a monk obtained a horsetail whisk; the Buddha said: 'It is permitted to keep it.' At that time there were young monks who did not understand the timing of duties and confused the numbers; \[the Buddha said:\] 'It is permitted to use counting sticks to keep count.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 99.60](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.99.60) - [Next: 99.62](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.99.62) - [Up: 99](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.99) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122~en-mt.99.61) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (2) - [四分律](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.vinaya.other-vinayas.dharmaguptaka*zh-buddhayasas.52.67) — Classical Chinese - [諸經要集](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.20.100) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.99.61](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.99.61) · Pramāṇa
