Abstinence is briefly of five kinds: with regard to a. substance; b. place; c. time; d. state of mind; e. development. (14) a. He who takes less food than he usually does, in the extreme case but one mouthful, performs abstinence with regard to substance. (15) b. (Place means) a village, a scotfree town, a capital, a camp of merchants, a mine, a settlement of a wild tribe, a place with an earth wall, a poor town, a town with a harbour, a large town, an isolated town, and an open town. (16)
In a hermitage, a vihâra, a halting-place for procession, a resting-place for travellers, a station of herdsmen, a camp on high ground, a caravan's camp, a fortified place of refuge. (17)
In gardens, on roads, in houses--all this is meant by place. In these and similar places he may (wander about). In this way he performs abstinence with regard to place. (18)
