"Tenth, on the Bodhisattva fast day, one must not jest, laugh, or share a seat with women; women likewise. These are the ten precepts. One must not violate them, must not instruct others to violate them, and must not encourage others to violate them. The method of releasing the Bodhisattva fast states: 'Namo Buddhāya, namo Dharmāya, namo Saṅghāya. I, [so-and-so], for so-many days and so-many nights, have upheld the Bodhisattva fast; through sharing gifts and giving, I shall attain the six pāramitās, just like the method of all bodhisattvas and the sixty thousand bodhisattvas. On the fast day and night: one part for meditation, one part for reciting sūtras, and one part for sleeping.' This is the method of the Bodhisattva fast day: receive it from the fourteenth day of the first month, and release it on the seventeenth day; receive it from the eighth day of the fourth month, and release it on the fifteenth day; receive it from the first day of the seventh month, and release it on the sixteenth day; receive it from the fourteenth day of the ninth month, and release it on the sixteenth day."
