请允许我致力于祈请僧众商议之事。请各位僧众垂听。如今僧众结夏安居，是夏季中月或小月的十五日。如果僧众认为时机已到且适宜，请僧众允许。僧众今日受持树枝，明日起承诺安居。这是祈请。之后，分发者首先将用丝绸和鲜花缠绕的代表佛陀的树枝，用两根手指捏住两端，放在头顶。说道：这是我等导师圆满正等觉佛陀所受持的。说完，供于佛陀像前。然后，拿到每个座位前，从上座开始依次分发。接受者也不说话，从座位上起身一半，拿起各自的树枝，轻轻地放在怀里。具足戒比丘和沙弥的树枝，由各自的亲教师或轨范师拿取，说道：这是某某沙弥的。最后，上座部拿取，说道：这是常住于此寺庙的护法神的。然后，将比丘和沙弥分别聚集，清点人数。分发者站起身，合掌说道：请各位僧众垂听。在此名为吉祥的寺庙中，有这么多比丘受持了树枝。要让人明白。列席者回答说“受持了”，据说这是出自破立宗的类比，没有出处，是不正确的。虽然没有详细说明“某某沙弥拿取了”，但按照钦钦的文书作为惯例。之后是分配住所。一般来说，住所和床铺等常住之物都已经分配完毕。但是，对于突然来访者需要重新分配，而且，如果有可分配之物，就应该分别分配，即由指定者拿着住所的门闩和钥匙。首先坐在上座面前，说道：亲教师或轨范师或上座，此寺庙具备衣服等财物，请享用。从年长者依次到沙弥的最后。

Please allow me to devote myself to the matter of requesting the Sangha to deliberate. Please listen, venerable Sangha. Today, the Sangha is about to observe the summer retreat, it being the fifteenth day of the middle or last month of summer. If the Sangha deems it timely and appropriate, please allow it. The Sangha will take the branch today and promise to observe the summer retreat starting tomorrow. This is the request. Then, the distributor first takes the branch representing the Buddha, which is wrapped in silk and flowers, holding the two ends with two fingers, and touches it to the crown of the head. He says: This is what our teacher, the perfectly enlightened Buddha, has taken. Having said this, he offers it before the image of the Buddha. Then, he carries it to each seat, distributing it in order from the most senior. The recipients also do not speak, but rise halfway from their seats, take their respective branches, and gently place them in their laps. The branches for fully ordained monks and novices are taken by their respective preceptors or instructors, saying: This is for so-and-so novice. Finally, the elder takes it, saying: This is for the guardian deity who dwells in this monastery. Then, the monks and novices are gathered separately and counted. The distributor stands up, joins his palms, and says: Please listen, venerable Sangha. In this monastery called Tashi, so many monks have taken the branch. It should be made known. Those present in the assembly reply "Taken," but it is said that this is from the analogy of the refutation sect, without any source, and is incorrect. Although it is not explained in detail that "so-and-so novice has taken it," it is practiced according to the writings of Chimchen. After that is the allocation of dwellings. Generally, dwellings and bedding, etc., that are permanent are already allocated. However, for sudden visitors, it is necessary to reallocate, and moreover, if there are things to allocate, they should be allocated separately, that is, the appointed person holds the latch and key of the dwelling. First, he sits before the elder and says: Preceptor or instructor or elder, this monastery is endowed with possessions such as robes, please enjoy. From the elders down to the last of the novices.

我亲自锁上自己住所的门和钥匙，接受者们也默默地像钵一样接受。然后依次分发床垫，说：请享用这床具，与夏季的规矩相符。分发完毕后，施与者站在僧团的末尾，合掌说道：僧团的僧人们请听。你们中任何人都不得在没有授权的情况下使用僧团的住所。未经授权不得使用。不得使用有污垢的授权。这样告知后，通过同样的行持来理解承诺夏季安居。僧团的僧人们请听。僧团明日的伞盖，将依靠名为某某的施主，或者没有特别指定时，依靠包括天、人、龙、夜叉等众多众生，以及名为某某的侍者，名为某某的修行地的村庄，名为某某的厨师，或者分别提及的这些人，承诺安住夏季。这样说。然后进行回向、祈愿和吉祥语，结束后，夏季的准备，即进入仪轨的仪式。然后是承诺夏季安居的正式仪轨。在那之后的第二天，十六日的上午，据说各自在自己的住所连同卧具，在比丘面前承诺。但现在聚集起来进行是惯例，敲击犍稚后聚集。现在是承诺早期夏季安居的时候了，寺院的主人等，向世续三部和地主神灵供奉朵玛。然后，在未达到僧团人数的比丘面前，蹲坐合掌说道：尊者请听。我，名为某某，为了修缮包括内界限在内的这个住所的破损和裂缝，承诺安住早期夏季安居三个月。我在此安住夏季，我的夏季安住地就是这里。这样重复三次后，善巧地进行。如果是晚期夏季安居，则改为晚期夏季安居三个月。如果有施主等，则在“为了修缮裂缝”之后加上：名为某某的施主，名为某某的侍者，修行

I personally lock the door and key of my own dwelling, and the recipients also silently receive it like a bowl. Then, the bedding is distributed in order, saying: Please enjoy this bedding in accordance with the summer customs. After the distribution is finished, the giver stands at the end of the Sangha, joins his palms, and says: Venerable Sangha, please listen. None of you should use the Sangha's dwelling without authorization. It should not be used without authorization. It should not be used with a tainted authorization. Having made this known, the commitment to the summer retreat is understood through the same conduct. Venerable Sangha, please listen. The Sangha's umbrella for tomorrow will rely on the donor named so-and-so, or if there is no specific designation, on the multitude of beings including gods, humans, nagas, and yakshas, as well as the attendant named so-and-so, the village of the practice place named so-and-so, the cook named so-and-so, or these individually mentioned individuals, and will commit to dwelling in the summer retreat. Thus it is said. Then, after dedicating merit, making aspirations, and reciting auspicious words, it is concluded, and that is the ritual for the preparation of the summer retreat, the ceremony of entering the custom. Then comes the actual ritual of committing to the summer retreat. On the morning of the sixteenth day after that, it is said that each person commits in front of a bhikshu in their own dwelling, along with bedding. However, nowadays it is customary to gather and perform the practice, gathering after striking the ghanta. Now is the time to commit to the early summer retreat, and the owner of the monastery, etc., offers torma to the Three Sections of the Lineage and the local deities. Then, sitting squatting in front of a bhikshu who does not have the full Sangha present, joining the palms, one says: Venerable one, please listen. I, named so-and-so, in this dwelling including the inner boundary, in order to repair the damage and cracks of the dwelling, commit to dwelling in the early summer retreat for three months. I am here in this summer retreat, and this is my summer retreat dwelling. After repeating this three times, one skillfully proceeds. If it is the later summer retreat, then change it to the later summer retreat for three months. If there are donors, etc., then after "in order to repair the cracks," add: the donor named so-and-so, the attendant named so-and-so, the practice

所谓的这个地方的村庄，以及所谓的这个服务者，就附加“初夏三个月”吧。如果没有特别的地方，就发誓说要在这个地方安住夏季三个月，这样也能安住。如果没有承诺安住，如果不放任离开，那就是安住。如是说。那样承诺安住夏季之后，如何成办的事务是：每半个月检查是否返回住处等，这是被指派的人的事务。僧团共同的事务是勤奋于阅读、听闻、思考和修行禅定，避免翻动钵等许多事情和许多事务，避免争论堕罪的缘由，分配财物，避免争斗。用寺庙的滴水等来守护。不在结界外过夜。然而，如果因为符合佛法的需要而必须在结界外过夜，为了不破坏夏季安住，就加持后前往。其中，除了夏季结束前的六天，从个人来说，加持一天到七天之间的任何一天的仪轨是：在结界内，坐在具足九法的比丘面前，说：尊者请垂听。我，名为某某，在这个包括内结界的处所，承诺安住初夏三个月，但我，名为某某，为了某些符合佛法的事务，要前往七天结界之外，并且在那之前返回，请加持我。我在此安住夏季，我的夏季安住处就是这里。这样说三遍，并善巧方便。同样，无论是加持一天还是两天等，都要替换所说的内容。如果因为僧团等符合佛法的事，七天无法完成，那么在获得僧团给予的四十天许可后，加持八天到四十天之间所需的日数后前往。其仪轨是：如果是为了僧团，执事者问：具寿，您为了僧团加持四十天，愿意前往结界之外吗？他也回答说：愿意。娘氏说，如果是为了自己，则不需要询问。然后自己...

And this village of the country, and this servant, let us add "the first three months of summer." If there is no special place, then even if one vows to stay in this place for three months of summer, one will stay. If one does not promise to stay, if one does not let go, then one is staying. Thus it is said. After vowing to stay for the summer in that way, the activities of how to accomplish it are: checking whether one returns to the dwelling every half month, etc., are the activities of the appointed person. The general activities of the Sangha are to diligently read, listen, think, and practice meditation, and to avoid many things and many activities such as turning over the bowl. Avoid discussing the causes of downfall that cause conflict, distributing wealth, and avoiding fighting. Protect with temple drips, etc. Do not stay overnight outside the boundary. However, if it is necessary to stay overnight outside the boundary due to the needs of the Dharma, then in order not to break the summer retreat, one goes after blessing it. Among them, except for the last six days of the summer retreat, the ritual for blessing any day from one to seven days from an individual is: inside the boundary, sit squatting in front of a monk who possesses nine qualities, and say: Venerable, please listen. I, named so-and-so, in this place including the inner boundary, have vowed to stay for the first three months of summer, but I, named so-and-so, for some Dharma-abiding affairs, will go beyond the seven-day boundary, and before that, please bless me to return. I am staying here in the summer, and this is my summer dwelling place. Say this three times and be skillful. Similarly, whether it is blessing one day or two days, etc., the content of what is said must be replaced. If it is necessary to go for Dharma-abiding matters such as the Sangha that cannot be completed in seven days, then after obtaining permission from the Sangha for forty days, go after blessing the required number of days from eight to forty days. The ritual for this is: if it is for the Sangha, the worker asks: Venerable, do you want to bless forty days for the Sangha and go outside the boundary? He also replies: I do. Nyak says that if it is for oneself, there is no need to ask. Then one's own...
