律戒本疏 1.15

1.15

第十一有餘比丘同意別異語　調達破僧後餘善比丘。先與劬和等親厚同意。於私隱處愍而諫之。乃至若多皆善比丘也。次下言是同意比丘者。是彼四人與調達同意也。初先一人二人三人諫。是輕偷。僧中羯磨諫重偷。助破僧四人犯僧殘者。結戒後也。僧諫不止助成破僧。犯四事邊逆輕偷可悔。餘五百比丘犯僧殘邊重偷。九清淨比丘者。調達自以為佛。不入八中。故當捨破僧同意別異語。意與調達同。即與善眾異。異眾之言。宜速捨之。調達作佛。四人為眾。有佛有眾合而成化。能擔法故無首化大逆也。從者重偷。是比丘說等皆是重偷。羯磨前也。

Eleventh: other monks agreeing and speaking divergent words. After Devadatta split the saṃgha, other good monks, who were previously close and of one mind with Kokālika and the others, pitied and admonished them in private and secluded places; even if there were many, they were all good monks. Next, where it states 'these monks of the same mind', it refers to those four persons who were of the same mind as Devadatta. At first, admonishing by one, two, or three people incurs a light sthūlāccaya; a formal admonition through karman within the saṃgha incurs a grave sthūlāccaya. The four persons who assisted in splitting the saṃgha incurring a saṃghāvaśeṣa applies after the precept was established. If, despite the saṃgha's admonitions, they do not desist and assist in accomplishing the schism of the saṃgha, they commit a light sthūlāccaya bordering on the act of immediate retribution of the four matters, which can be repented. The remaining five hundred monks commit a grave sthūlāccaya bordering on saṃghāvaśeṣa. Regarding the 'nine pure monks': Devadatta considered himself a Buddha and did not count among the eight; therefore, they should abandon divergent words that agree with schism in the saṃgha. When one's mind agrees with Devadatta, it diverges from the good assembly; one should swiftly abandon speech that diverges from the assembly. Devadatta acted as the Buddha, and the four persons acted as the assembly: with both Buddha and assembly together, a transformation was formed; because they could carry the Dharma, there was the great act of immediate retribution of creating a transformation without a leader. Those who followed them committed a grave sthūlāccaya. These monks' speech and so forth all constitute grave sthūlāccayas, which occurred before the karman.
