English version: At that time, that Bhikshu (monk) did not smear the pot with mud on the outside. The Buddha said, 'You should make mud with grass ash and smear it all over.' That Bhikshu did not smear and wipe the inside of the pot. The Buddha said, 'You should make mud with hemp dregs, smear and wipe it, and wait for it to dry.' However, the fired pot still did not receive color. The Buddha said, 'Place rice husks inside, cover it with a cage, and smear the edge of the pot mouth with mud.' That Bhikshu then placed the pot on the ground to smoke it. The Buddha said, 'You should support it with something, and repeating the placement on top should also be like this.' Those supports were too thin and small, and the pots stuck together. The Buddha said, 'You should use higher supports and not let the pots get close to each other.' It still did not receive color. The Buddha said, 'You should wash it several times and then fire it again.' Smoke came out of the cage. The Buddha said, 'You should cover the mouth with ash.' That Bhikshu piled up a large pile of cow dung to burn it, which damaged the pot. The Buddha said, 'You should pile up cow dung and set fire from above.' He did not know who to send to watch the fire. The Buddha said, 'The Bhikshu should watch it himself. If there is something else, entrust another Bhikshu to watch it, and then you can leave.' Burning the pot on the ground damaged many insects. The Buddha said, 'You should clean and sweep it. Therefore, I now allow all Bhikshus to possess smoking pot cages, and there is no offense in using the items needed for this cage.' The third sonnet of the collection says: 'One robe should not be made mutually, bathing can shield people, one should not shave their head on the bedding, and the sick can freely take food and drink.' At that time, the Buddha was in Śrāvastī (city in ancient India). At that time, a donor built a bathhouse and offered it to the Sangha (monastic community). The six-group Bhikshus (a group of monks who liked to violate the precepts) each wore a skirt and rubbed their bodies against each other. Laypeople entered the bathhouse and said, 'What are these people, what kind of heretics are they?' The devout believers replied, 'They are disciples of Śākya (Buddha's family name).' When the householders heard this, they became sarcastic: 'Their teacher is often ashamed, why are these people shameless?' At that time, the Bhikshus heard this and reported it to the Buddha. The Buddha said, 'You should not rub each other while wearing skirts. If anyone violates this, they will receive a Dukkrta (a minor offense).' At that time, the Bhikshus allowed laypeople to enter the bathhouse and saw the Bhikshus rubbing their feet with their hands and then touching their heads. The laypeople ridiculed them, saying, 'The Śrāmana (generic term for renunciates) Śākya-putra (disciples of Śākya) are doing this vulgar act, which is unclean, since they have rubbed their feet --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

已复用摩头。”时诸苾刍以缘白佛,佛言:“入浴室时,无信敬人不应令入亦勿令作。若教作者得恶作罪。”时诸苾刍在浴室内无人守护,有诸居士来入其室,见苾刍等以手揩足复将洗面,便讥嫌曰:“沙门释子实为鄙恶,以手揩足,复将洗面。”佛言:“若洗浴时,无令俗人入浴室内,应差苾刍为守护者。”时给孤独长者,与一无敬信婆罗门往逝多林,苾刍见已报长者曰:“勿使此人入浴室内。”婆罗门曰:“我有何过而见遮止?”时诸苾刍以缘白佛,佛言:“若知彼人有净信者应许入室。”时有婆罗门入既被遮,见余不障,婆罗门曰:“彼诸俗人皆许入室,何故于我而独见遮?”苾刍报曰:“此已归依受诸学处。”彼便答曰:“我亦归依受其学处,愿听我入。”报言:“可尔。”便与受戒即许其入。彼既入已,见诸苾刍揩身下分复用摩头,遂起讥曰:“沙门释子实为鄙秽。”苾刍白佛,佛言:“若知其人久怀信者许入,若初信者勿听。” 缘处同前。时有长者请佛及僧入室洗浴,是时世尊将诸苾刍诣彼长者洗浴之处,见有苾刍与一苾刍揩摩身体。世尊告曰:“汝等见此苾刍与彼苾刍揩摩身不?”白言:“已见。”佛告苾刍:“其为揩者,是阿罗汉诸漏已尽。彼受揩者,是破戒人行罪恶法。汝等当知!不应师 现代汉语译本: ‘已经用手摩擦过头部。’当时,各位比丘将此事禀告佛陀,佛陀说:‘进入浴室时,没有信仰和恭敬心的人不应该让他们进入,也不要让他们做任何事情。如果教他们做,就会犯恶作罪。’当时,各位比丘在浴室里,没有人守护,有一些居士来到浴室,看见比丘们用手擦脚,又用这只手洗脸,便讥讽说:‘这些沙门释子真是卑鄙恶劣,用手擦脚,又用这只手洗脸。’佛陀说:‘洗浴时,不要让俗人进入浴室,应该派遣比丘作为守护者。’当时,给孤独长者(Anathapindika,一位富有的商人,也是佛陀的追随者)与一位没有敬信的婆罗门(Brahmin,印度教祭司)前往逝多林(Jetavana,祇园精舍的所在地),比丘们看见后告诉长者说:‘不要让这个人进入浴室。’婆罗门说:‘我有什么过错而被阻止?’当时,各位比丘将此事禀告佛陀,佛陀说:‘如果知道那个人有清净的信仰,就应该允许他进入浴室。’当时,有一位婆罗门进入浴室时被阻止,看见其他人没有被阻拦,婆罗门说:‘那些俗人都被允许进入浴室,为什么唯独阻止我?’比丘回答说:‘这些人已经皈依佛门,接受了各种学处(Siksa-pada,戒律)。’那人便回答说:‘我也皈依佛门,接受那些学处,希望允许我进入。’比丘回答说:‘可以。’便为他授戒,允许他进入。他进入后,看见各位比丘用手擦拭身体的下半部分,又用这只手摩擦头部,于是开始讥讽说:‘这些沙门释子真是卑鄙污秽。’比丘禀告佛陀,佛陀说:‘如果知道那个人长期怀有信仰,就允许他进入,如果是初次信仰的人,就不要允许。’ 事情发生的地点和之前一样。当时,有一位长者邀请佛陀和僧众进入浴室洗浴,这时,世尊(Bhagavan,佛陀的尊称)带领各位比丘前往那位长者的洗浴之处,看见有一位比丘与另一位比丘互相擦拭身体。世尊说道:‘你们看见这位比丘与那位比丘互相擦拭身体了吗?’比丘们回答说:‘已经看见了。’佛陀告诉比丘们:‘为他人擦拭身体的那位比丘,是阿罗汉(Arhat,已证悟的圣人),诸漏已尽。接受擦拭身体的那位比丘,是破戒之人,行为罪恶之法。你们应当知道!不应该师

English version: ‘Already rubbed the head.’ At that time, the Bhikshus (monks) reported this matter to the Buddha. The Buddha said, ‘When entering the bathroom, those without faith and respect should not be allowed to enter, nor should they be allowed to do anything. If you teach them to do it, you will commit a Dukkata (misdeed) offense.’ At that time, the Bhikshus were in the bathroom without anyone guarding it. Some lay people came into the room and saw the Bhikshus rubbing their feet with their hands and then washing their faces with the same hands. They ridiculed and said, ‘These Shramana Shakyaputras (ascetics, followers of Shakyamuni Buddha) are truly vile and disgusting, rubbing their feet with their hands and then washing their faces with the same hands.’ The Buddha said, ‘When bathing, do not allow lay people to enter the bathroom. Bhikshus should be appointed as guards.’ At that time, Anathapindika (a wealthy merchant and a follower of the Buddha) and a Brahmin (a member of the priestly class in Hinduism) without faith went to Jetavana (a monastery donated to the Buddha). The Bhikshus saw them and told Anathapindika, ‘Do not let this person enter the bathroom.’ The Brahmin said, ‘What fault have I committed that I am being prevented?’ At that time, the Bhikshus reported this matter to the Buddha. The Buddha said, ‘If you know that person has pure faith, you should allow him to enter the room.’ At that time, a Brahmin was prevented from entering the bathroom and saw that others were not being prevented. The Brahmin said, ‘Those lay people are all allowed to enter the room, why am I alone being prevented?’ The Bhikshus replied, ‘These people have already taken refuge and received the Siksa-padas (precepts).’ The Brahmin replied, ‘I also take refuge and receive those Siksa-padas, I wish to be allowed to enter.’ The Bhikshus replied, ‘Okay.’ They then administered the precepts to him and allowed him to enter. After he entered, he saw the Bhikshus rubbing the lower parts of their bodies and then rubbing their heads with the same hands. He then began to ridicule them, saying, ‘These Shramana Shakyaputras are truly vile and filthy.’ The Bhikshus reported this to the Buddha. The Buddha said, ‘If you know that person has long held faith, allow him to enter. If he is a new believer, do not allow him.’ The location of the event is the same as before. At that time, a wealthy man invited the Buddha and the Sangha (monastic community) to enter the bathroom for bathing. At this time, the Bhagavan (the Blessed One, an epithet of the Buddha) led the Bhikshus to the wealthy man's bathing place and saw one Bhikshu rubbing the body of another Bhikshu. The Bhagavan said, ‘Have you seen this Bhikshu rubbing the body of that Bhikshu?’ The Bhikshus replied, ‘We have seen it.’ The Buddha told the Bhikshus, ‘The Bhikshu who is rubbing is an Arhat (a perfected being), whose outflows are exhausted. The Bhikshu who is being rubbed is a person who has broken the precepts and practices sinful Dharma (teachings). You should know! You should not’ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 子与彼野干而为给事。”

缘处同前。有一长者,娶妻未久诞生一息。年既长大,于善说法律而为出家,常求胜已寻义他方博学多闻,还来至此室罗伐城。父闻子至,便诣其所共相问讯。是时苾刍即为其父略宣法要,劝归三宝受五学处。后于异时,复为其父说七有事福业功德。父闻子说深生敬信,作如是言:“尊者当知!我今亦愿作七有事福业功德。”彼便答言:“可随意作。”父便问言:“先作何事?”答曰:“当为僧伽营理浴室。”闻已还家营理事毕,来报子曰:“尊者!当称我名请佛及僧就舍澡洗。”其子闻已,即诣佛所称父名字,而为请佛。时彼长者发深信心,自为苾刍香油涂身,以米屑揩去。澡浴事毕,报其子曰:“我极疲劳为我涂背。”其子答曰:“世尊于此已制学处。”父便问曰:“所制学处其事云何?”答曰:“勿以师子供侍野干,故我不应而为执事。”父问子曰:“谁是师子?谁为野干?”子答父言:“我是师子,父是野干。”父曰:“斯为妙事,以我野干能生师子。”时诸苾刍以缘白佛,佛言:“凡是父母于其子处能为难事荷负众苦,假令父母是极破戒,其子亦应为作供侍。是故我听于其五处纵极破戒应为供给,所谓父、母、亲教师、轨范师及诸病人。” 尔时佛在室罗伐城。有一 现代汉语译本:‘你和那野干一起做侍者。’ 因缘和之前一样。有一位长者,娶妻不久生了一个儿子。儿子长大后,在一位善于说法的人那里出家,经常为了超越自己而到其他地方广泛学习,增长见闻,之后回到室罗伐城(Śrāvastī,古印度城市,意为‘丰德’)。父亲听说儿子回来了,就去他那里互相问候。当时这位苾刍(bhikṣu,比丘)就为他的父亲简略地宣讲了佛法要义,劝他皈依三宝,受持五戒。后来在其他时候,又为他的父亲讲述了七有事福业的功德。父亲听了儿子的话,深深地敬佩和相信,这样说道:‘尊者您要知道!我现在也愿意做七有事福业的功德。’他便回答说:‘可以随意做。’父亲便问道:‘先做什么事好呢?’回答说:‘应当为僧伽(saṃgha,僧团)修建浴室。’听了之后回到家中,把浴室修建完毕,来告诉儿子说:‘尊者!请您称我的名字,邀请佛和僧众到我家洗澡。’他的儿子听了之后,就到佛那里,称了他父亲的名字,为他邀请佛。当时那位长者发了深厚的信心,亲自为比丘们涂抹香油,用米粉擦拭干净。洗浴完毕,告诉他的儿子说:‘我非常疲劳,为我擦背。’他的儿子回答说:‘世尊(Bhagavān,佛的称号,意为‘有福德者’)在这里已经制定了戒律。’父亲便问道:‘所制定的戒律是怎么说的?’回答说:‘不要让师子(siṃha,狮子,比喻有德者)的孩子侍奉野干(śṛgāla,豺狼,比喻无德者),所以我不能为您做这件事。’父亲问儿子说:‘谁是师子?谁是野干?’儿子回答父亲说:‘我是师子,父亲是野干。’父亲说:‘这是妙事,因为我这野干能生出师子。’当时各位比丘把这件事禀告了佛,佛说:‘凡是父母在子女那里能做难事,承担众多的痛苦,即使父母是极度破戒之人,他们的子女也应当为他们做供养侍奉。因此我允许在五种情况下,即使对方极度破戒也应当供给,这五种情况是:父亲、母亲、亲教师、轨范师以及病人。’ 当时佛在室罗伐城。

English version: 'You and that jackal can be attendants together.' The circumstances are the same as before. There was a wealthy man who, not long after marrying, had a son. When the son grew up, he renounced the world under a teacher who was skilled in explaining the law, constantly seeking to surpass himself by traveling to other places to learn extensively and increase his knowledge. Later, he returned to Śrāvastī (ancient Indian city, meaning 'Abundance of Virtue'). When the father heard that his son had arrived, he went to him and they greeted each other. At that time, the bhikṣu (monk) briefly explained the essentials of the Dharma to his father, encouraging him to take refuge in the Three Jewels and observe the five precepts. Later, at another time, he further explained to his father the merits of the seven meritorious deeds. The father, hearing his son's words, developed deep respect and faith, saying, 'Venerable one, know that I now also wish to perform the meritorious deeds of the seven meritorious activities.' The son replied, 'You may do as you wish.' The father then asked, 'What should I do first?' The son replied, 'You should build a bathhouse for the saṃgha (monastic community).' After hearing this, he returned home, completed the construction of the bathhouse, and came to tell his son, 'Venerable one, please call my name and invite the Buddha and the sangha to my house for bathing.' Upon hearing this, his son went to the Buddha, called his father's name, and invited the Buddha on his behalf. At that time, the wealthy man developed deep faith and personally applied fragrant oil to the bhikṣus and scrubbed them with rice powder. After the bathing was completed, he told his son, 'I am very tired; please rub my back.' His son replied, 'The Bhagavan (Buddha's title, meaning 'Blessed One') has already established a precept here.' The father then asked, 'What does the established precept say?' The son replied, 'Do not let the child of a siṃha (lion, symbolizing a virtuous person) serve a śṛgāla (jackal, symbolizing a non-virtuous person), so I should not do this for you.' The father asked his son, 'Who is the lion? Who is the jackal?' The son replied to his father, 'I am the lion, and you are the jackal.' The father said, 'This is wonderful, because I, the jackal, can give birth to a lion.' At that time, the bhikṣus reported this matter to the Buddha, and the Buddha said, 'Whenever parents can do difficult things for their children and bear many sufferings, even if the parents are extremely immoral, their children should still make offerings and serve them. Therefore, I allow that in five cases, even if the other person is extremely immoral, they should be provided for: father, mother, preceptor, instructor, and the sick.' At that time, the Buddha was in Śrāvastī. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
