The \*Dazhidu lun\* states: 'In the language of Qin, it means nature's goodness. Delighting in practicing wholesome paths and not being self-indulgent is called śīla.' The \*Jingyin yi\* states: 'This is a translation by meaning; the correct translation is "stopping and obtaining", meaning stopping evil and obtaining good.' Moreover, ancient masters translated it as 'precepts' (\*jie\*); precepts take guarding and preventing as their meaning, being able to prevent the unmanifest faults of bad moral codes and stop the evil arising from the three karmas; hence it is called guarding and preventing. The \*Dazhidu lun\* says: 'What is a precept? If evil is stopped and not done again, whether generated in mind, spoken by mouth, or received from another, putting an end to bodily and verbal evil is a precept.' The \*Jingyin yi\* states: 'In Sanskrit, \*saṃvara\*, translated here as prohibitive precepts.' The \*Jieshu\* states: 'Precept (\*jie\*) is glossed by meaning as "alerting" (\*jing\*). Alerting the three karmas to stay far away from circumstantial faults clarifies its cause.' The \*Upāsakaśīla Sūtra\* states: 'Precept is named restraint (\*zhi\*), because it can restrain all unwholesome dharmas.' Furthermore, \*jie\* means binding, glossing, and restraining. The \*Zuanyao\* states: 'The approximately two hundred and fifty precepts each have four bodily postures, making one thousand; revolving through the three times, they become three thousand; taking the three thousand bodily postures and allocating them to the seven branches of body and speech makes twenty-one thousand; further, matching them to counteract the three poisons and their equal combination makes eighty-four thousand.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.56](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.4.56) - [Next: 4.58](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.4.58) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131~en-mt.4.57) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.4.57](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.4.57) · Pramāṇa
