English

English version: ‘This saṃghāṭī (outer robe of the monastic order) can be taken away by himself.’ He reported this matter to the Buddha, who said, ‘The one who takes it can use it.’ Later, the fear subsided, and a bhikṣu (monk) said, ‘This is the property of the Saṃgha (community), why are you using it alone?’ He replied, ‘The Buddha taught me to use it.’ The Buddha said, ‘I temporarily allowed the use of the Saṃgha's bedding during the time of fear; now that the fear has been removed, it should return to the usual rules.’ The ninth section's summary verse says: If there is a large gathering, beat the drum to gather the Saṃgha, divide the assembly into rows, and the person in charge of checking should eat first. At that time, the Buddha was in Śrāvastī (a major city in ancient India). Anāthapiṇḍada (a wealthy merchant and benefactor of the Buddha) asked the World Honored One, ‘I would like to hold a great assembly in Jetavana (a famous monastery), may I have your permission?’ The Buddha said, ‘Now is the right time.’ On the day of the assembly, all the bhikṣus from the six major cities gathered, and because there were so many people, they missed the mealtime. The Buddha said, ‘The ghaṇṭā (a bell or gong) should be struck.’ Although the ghaṇṭā was struck, the crowd was noisy and could not hear it. The Buddha said, ‘The big drum should be beaten.’ When they heard the sound of the drum, they should gather at the place for eating, and the bhikṣus could sit in order according to their seniority. When the food was being distributed, it was not yet the end of the row, and the sun had passed noon, and many of the bhikṣus were starving. The Buddha said, ‘If there are many people, the rows should be measured in advance, and separate rows should be set up, and food should be placed on each senior seat, and it can be done at the same time.’ However, when the lay people (lay followers) distributed cakes and fruits, they could not do it equally. The Buddha said, ‘A bhikṣu should be sent to watch over the distribution of cakes and fruits.’ After they were sent, they accepted and distributed, paying attention to observing so that it was distributed everywhere. However, this bhikṣu waited until the assembly had finished eating, and the time had passed, and he was starving. The Buddha said, ‘If it is the person in charge of checking, he should take his share first during the meal, and there is no fault in eating it.’ The tenth section's summary verse says: Whenever there is a group of bhikṣuṇīs (nuns), an empty seat should be placed at the front, in order to wait for other bhikṣus, do not let the lonely and poor increase the price (referring to raising the price of offerings). At that time, the Buddha was in Śrāvastī. At that time, there were many bhikṣuṇīs, traveling among the people, and they came to a village. At that time, there was a wealthy man in that village, who had faith and respect, and invited the nuns to his house for a meal.

窣吐罗难陀苾刍尼,亲为上座。是时有一乞食苾刍,共诸商旅游历人间,至斯聚落巡门乞食。时有村人告言:“圣者!有诸尼众,在长者家受其供养,仁今可往就彼受食。”闻已诣彼,时苾刍尼白言:“尊者!大众食竟,能为咒愿及以说法,应居上座。若不能者,可在一边食罢而去。”时彼苾刍𧹞然思曰:“我待食了说法方行者,时既延迟恐失商旅。”遂于一边食了而去,渐至室罗伐城。时诸苾刍见而告曰:“善来!善来!具寿!所有游历安乐行不?”答曰:“宁有安乐,被苾刍尼深见倰辱。”问言:“何意?”即便具告。诸苾刍以缘白佛,佛言:“若一苾刍、一苾刍尼,然此苾刍宜居上首,应先受水及受其食,或二、或三乃至众多苾刍尼处,若一苾刍亦为众首,应先受水及以受食。凡苾刍尼所食之处,于上座首留一座处,假令求寂在后来至,就座而食,是上众故。若不尔者,诸苾刍尼得越法罪。”时给孤独长者,于逝多林设大会已,妻妾男女悉舍与僧,时诸苾刍不知云何?以缘白佛,佛言:“应问长者。”彼既问已,长者答言:“应可准价卖之。”苾刍共准。是时六众争共上价,有一孤苦女人,见增其价遂生愁怖,白长者言:“我是孤苦勿见遗弃。”时诸苾刍以缘白佛,佛言:“孤苦女人性多愁怖,汝诸苾刍!不应 现代汉语译本 窣吐罗难陀比丘尼(Sthulananda Bhikshuni,一位比丘尼的名字),亲自担任上座。当时,有一位乞食的比丘,与一些商人一起游历各地,来到这个村落挨家挨户乞食。这时,有村民告诉他说:‘圣者!有一些比丘尼在一位长者(Gṛhapati,富有的居士)家接受供养,您现在可以去那里接受食物。’ 他听后就去了那里,当时比丘尼对他说:‘尊者!如果大众用完餐后,您能为大家念诵祝愿词以及说法,就应该坐在上座。如果不能,可以在一边用餐完毕后离开。’ 当时那位比丘心想:‘如果我等用完餐后说法再走,时间就会耽搁,恐怕会错过商队。’于是就在一边用完餐后离开了,渐渐地来到了室罗伐城(Śrāvastī,古印度城市)。当时,众比丘见到他后说道:‘欢迎!欢迎!具寿(Ayushman,对年长者的尊称)!您游历各地,一路安乐吗?’ 他回答说:‘哪里有什么安乐,我被比丘尼深深地轻慢侮辱了。’众比丘问:‘怎么回事?’他就把事情的经过全部说了出来。众比丘将此事禀告佛陀,佛陀说:‘如果只有一个比丘和一个比丘尼,那么这位比丘应该坐在上首,应该先接受供水和食物;或者有两三个乃至更多的比丘尼,如果只有一个比丘,他也应该作为大众之首,应该先接受供水和食物。 凡是比丘尼用餐的地方,在上座之首要留一个座位,即使是沙弥(Śrāmaṇera,佛教出家男子)后来才到,也应该坐在那个座位上用餐,因为他是上座。如果不这样做,各位比丘尼就犯了越法罪。’ 当时给孤独长者(Anathapindada,一位著名的佛教护法),在逝多林(Jetavana,祇园精舍的所在地)举办了大型的法会,将自己的妻妾儿女全部布施给僧众,当时众比丘不知道该怎么办?就把这件事禀告佛陀,佛陀说:‘应该去问长者。’ 他们问了长者后,长者回答说:‘应该可以按照价格卖掉他们。’比丘们就一起估价。当时,六群比丘(Chabbaggiya,行为不端的比丘团体)争相抬高价格,有一位孤苦的女人,看到价格不断上涨,就感到忧愁害怕,对长者说:‘我是孤苦之人,请不要抛弃我。’ 当时众比丘将此事禀告佛陀,佛陀说:‘孤苦的女人天性多愁善感,你们各位比丘!不应该……’

English version The Bhikshuni Sthulananda (Sthulananda Bhikshuni, name of a Bhikshuni), personally held the senior seat. At that time, there was a Bhikshu (Bhikshu, a Buddhist monk) who was begging for food, traveling through the human realm with some merchants, and arrived at this village, going door to door begging for food. At that time, a villager told him: 'Venerable One! There are some Bhikshunis (Bhikshuni, a Buddhist nun) receiving offerings at the house of a Gṛhapati (Gṛhapati, a wealthy householder), you can go there now to receive food.' After hearing this, he went there. At that time, the Bhikshuni said to him: 'Venerable One! If you can recite blessings and preach the Dharma after the assembly has finished eating, you should sit in the senior seat. If you cannot, you can eat on the side and then leave.' At that time, that Bhikshu thought to himself: 'If I wait to preach the Dharma after finishing my meal, the time will be delayed, and I am afraid I will miss the merchant caravan.' So he finished his meal on the side and left, gradually arriving at Śrāvastī (Śrāvastī, an ancient Indian city). At that time, the Bhikshus, seeing him, said: 'Welcome! Welcome! Ayushman (Ayushman, a term of respect for elders)! Have you traveled in peace and happiness?' He replied: 'Where is there any peace and happiness? I have been deeply slighted and humiliated by the Bhikshunis.' The Bhikshus asked: 'What happened?' He then told them the whole story. The Bhikshus reported this matter to the Buddha, and the Buddha said: 'If there is only one Bhikshu and one Bhikshuni, then this Bhikshu should sit in the senior seat, and should receive water and food first; or if there are two or three or even more Bhikshunis, if there is only one Bhikshu, he should also be the head of the assembly, and should receive water and food first. Wherever Bhikshunis are eating, a seat should be reserved at the head of the senior seats, even if a Śrāmaṇera (Śrāmaṇera, a Buddhist novice monk) arrives later, he should sit in that seat to eat, because he is the senior. If this is not done, the Bhikshunis will have committed a transgression.' At that time, the Gṛhapati Anathapindada (Anathapindada, a famous Buddhist patron), held a large Dharma assembly in Jetavana (Jetavana, the location of the Jetavana Monastery), and gave all his wives, concubines, sons, and daughters to the Sangha (Sangha, the Buddhist monastic community). At that time, the Bhikshus did not know what to do? They reported this matter to the Buddha, and the Buddha said: 'You should ask the Gṛhapati.' After they asked the Gṛhapati, the Gṛhapati replied: 'They should be sold according to their price.' The Bhikshus then jointly estimated their value. At that time, the Chabbaggiya (Chabbaggiya, a group of unruly Bhikshus) competed to raise the price. A lonely and miserable woman, seeing the price constantly rising, felt worried and frightened, and said to the Gṛhapati: 'I am a lonely and miserable person, please do not abandon me.' At that time, the Bhikshus reported this matter to the Buddha, and the Buddha said: 'Lonely and miserable women are naturally prone to worry and fear, you Bhikshus! Should not...' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
