English version: If (a layperson) hides things under the water, all are considered to have committed an irredeemable offense. Furthermore, if a layperson has items for internal or external adornment on a tower, and a bird belonging to someone else carries these items away, taking the bird with a thieving mind constitutes an irredeemable offense. If one sees a bird flying away with treasure and waits from afar with a thieving mind, it constitutes a medium redeemable offense. If one uses the power of a mantra to make the bird go wherever one desires, it constitutes an irredeemable offense; if the bird goes elsewhere, it constitutes a medium redeemable offense. If a wild bird carries away treasure, and the layperson takes the wild bird with a thieving mind, it constitutes a medium redeemable offense; waiting for the wild bird constitutes a minor redeemable offense. Furthermore, if other wild birds carry away treasure, and a bird belonging to someone else takes it from the wild bird, and the layperson takes the bird belonging to someone else with a thieving mind, it constitutes an irredeemable offense; waiting for the bird constitutes a medium redeemable offense. The rest is as described above. Furthermore, if a bird belonging to someone else carries away treasure and is taken by a wild bird, and the layperson takes the wild bird with a thieving mind, it constitutes a medium redeemable offense; waiting for the bird also constitutes a medium redeemable offense. The rest is the same as above. 'If a layperson gambles, and with a thieving mind turns the gear to win five coins from another, it constitutes an irredeemable offense.' 'If a layperson steals a Sharira (relics of the Buddha or saints) with a thieving mind, it constitutes a medium redeemable offense; if one has a respectful mind and thinks, 'The Buddha is also my teacher,' taking it with a pure mind, there is no offense. If a layperson takes scriptures with a thieving mind, it constitutes an irredeemable offense, judged by the value of the scriptures.' 'Stealing land has two causes, seizing another's land: first, through verbal disputes; second, through setting boundary markers. If a layperson, for the sake of land, prevails over others in disputes, or sets irregular boundary markers, exceeding the land one should rightfully have, and the value reaches five coins, it constitutes an irredeemable offense.' 'Some laypersons should pay assessed taxes but do not, reaching five coins, it constitutes an irredeemable offense. Furthermore, if a layperson arrives at a customs checkpoint and says to other laypersons, 'Help me carry these things across, and I will give you half the tax.' For those who help carry it across, evading taxes of five coins, it constitutes an irredeemable offense. If a layperson shows others the wrong path, causing them to lose taxable goods, with a value of five coins, it constitutes a medium redeemable offense. If there are thieves, vicious beasts, or famine at the tax collection point, and one intentionally shows others the wrong path, allowing them to avoid harm, there is no offense.' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 斯害,不犯。

English version Not stealing, not violating. 'Furthermore, if a layperson conspires with thieves to break into villages, obtain goods, and share the spoils worth five coins or more, they commit an irredeemable offense.' 'Stealing creatures without feet, such as leeches and earthworms, if people pick them up and place them in a container, and the layperson steals them from the container, they commit an irredeemable offense. The selection criteria are as mentioned above. Stealing two-footed or three-footed creatures, such as people and birds like geese, swans, and parrots, if these birds are in cages, and one takes them with the intention to steal, they commit an irredeemable offense; other situations are as described above.' 'There are two ways of stealing a person: one is carrying them away; the other is conspiring together. If a layperson, with the intention to steal, carries a person on their shoulders, and the person's feet leave the ground, they commit an irredeemable offense; if they conspire together and walk more than two 'so' steps, they commit an irredeemable offense; all other situations are as described above.' 'Stealing four-footed animals, such as elephants (elephant), horses (horse), cattle (cattle), and sheep (sheep). If people tie them in one place with a rope, and one leads them away with the intention to steal, exceeding four 'so' steps, they commit an irredeemable offense. If they are lying down in one place, and one drives them away with the intention to steal, exceeding four 'so' steps, they commit an irredeemable offense; the same applies to multi-legged animals. If they are within walls or fences, and one drives them out with the intention to steal, exceeding four 'so' steps, they commit an irredeemable offense; other situations are as described above. If they are grazing outside, and the layperson thinks with the intention to steal: 'If the herdsman enters the forest and leaves, I will steal them,' generating this thought constitutes a redeemable offense. If one kills them, it is the same as the sin of killing, and taking meat worth five coins after killing constitutes an irredeemable offense.' 'Furthermore, there are seven conditions: one, thinking it is not one's own; two, without consent; three, not intending to use it temporarily; four, knowing it has an owner; five, not being insane; six, not being mentally disturbed; seven, not having a mind corrupted by illness. Under these seven conditions, taking valuable items constitutes an irredeemable offense; taking minor items constitutes a redeemable offense.' 'Furthermore, there are seven conditions: one, thinking it is one's own; two, with consent; three, intending to use it temporarily; four, thinking it has no owner; five, being insane; six, being mentally disturbed; seven, having a mind corrupted by illness. Under these seven conditions, taking items is not an offense.' 'There is a layperson planting...' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

植萝卜,又有一人来至园所,语居士言:‘与我萝卜。’居士问言:‘汝有价耶,为当直索?’答言:‘我无价也。’居士曰:‘若须萝卜,当持价来。我若但与汝者,何以供朝夕之膳耶!’客言:‘汝定不与我耶!’主曰:‘吾岂得与汝!’客便以咒术令菜干枯。回自生疑:‘将无犯不可悔耶?’往决如来。佛言:‘计直所犯可悔、不可悔,茎、叶、华、实皆与根同。’ “有一人在祇洹间耕垦,脱衣着田一面。时有居士四望无人,便持衣去。时耕者遥见,语居士言:‘勿取我衣!’居士不闻,犹谓无主,故持衣去。耕人即随后捉之,语居士言:‘汝法应不与取耶?’居士答言:‘我谓无主,故取之耳!岂法宜然。’耕人言:‘此是我衣。’居士言曰:‘是汝衣者,便可持去。’居士生疑:‘我将无犯不可悔耶?’即往佛所咨质此事。佛知故问:‘汝以何心取之?’居士白言:‘谓言无主。’佛言:‘无犯。自今而后取物者,善加筹量,或自有物,虽无人守而实有主者也,若发心欲偷未取者,犯下可悔;取而不满五钱者,犯中可悔,取而满五钱,犯不可悔。’” 淫戒第三 佛告诸比丘:“优婆塞不应生欲想、欲觉,尚不应生心,何况起欲、恚、痴、结缚根本不净恶业。是中犯邪淫有四处:男、 现代汉语译本: 有人种萝卜,又有一个人来到园子里,对居士(在家信佛的男子)说:‘给我萝卜。’居士问他说:‘你有钱吗?还是想白要?’那人回答说:‘我没有钱。’居士说:‘如果需要萝卜,就应该拿钱来。我如果白白给你,用什么来供给早晚的饭食呢!’那人说:‘你一定不给我吗?’居士说:‘我怎么能给你!’那人就用咒术使菜枯萎。回去后自己又怀疑:‘恐怕是犯了不可悔的罪吧?’于是去请教如来(佛)。佛说:‘按照价值来计算所犯的罪,可以悔或者不可悔,茎、叶、花、果实都和根一样。’ 有一个人在祇洹(Jetavana,佛教寺院)中耕地,脱下衣服放在田地的一边。当时有一个居士四处张望,看到没有人,就拿走了衣服。耕地的人远远地看见了,对居士说:‘不要拿我的衣服!’居士没有听见,还以为没有主人,所以拿走了衣服。耕地的人就随后追赶他,对居士说:‘你的行为不应该是不与而取吧?’居士回答说:‘我以为没有主人,所以才拿走了!难道是应该这样做吗?’耕地的人说:‘这是我的衣服。’居士说:‘如果是你的衣服,就可以拿走。’居士怀疑:‘我恐怕是犯了不可悔的罪吧?’就到佛那里去咨询这件事。佛明知故问:‘你以什么心去拿的?’居士回答说:‘以为没有主人。’佛说:‘没有犯戒。从今以后拿东西的人,要好好地考虑,或许东西本身有主人,虽然没有人看守但实际上是有主的。如果发心想要偷窃但还没有拿,犯下可悔罪;拿了但价值不满五钱,犯中可悔罪;拿了而且价值满了五钱,犯不可悔罪。’ 淫戒第三 佛告诉各位比丘(佛教出家男子):‘优婆塞(在家信佛的男子)不应该产生欲念、欲觉,尚且不应该生起这样的心,更何况是生起欲、恚(嗔恨)、痴(愚痴)这些结缚根本的不净恶业。这里面犯邪淫有四种情况:……’

English version: A person was planting radishes, and another person came to the garden and said to the layman (Upasaka, a male Buddhist devotee): 'Give me radishes.' The layman asked him, 'Do you have money, or do you want them for free?' The person replied, 'I have no money.' The layman said, 'If you need radishes, you should bring money. If I give them to you for nothing, what will I use to provide for my meals in the morning and evening!' The person said, 'Are you determined not to give them to me?' The layman said, 'How can I give them to you!' The person then used a curse to make the vegetables wither. After returning, he doubted himself: 'Perhaps I have committed an unpardonable offense?' So he went to consult the Tathagata (Buddha). The Buddha said, 'Calculate the offense based on the value, whether it is pardonable or unpardonable. The stems, leaves, flowers, and fruits are all the same as the root.' A person was plowing in Jetavana (Jetavana, a Buddhist monastery), and took off his clothes and placed them on one side of the field. At that time, a layman looked around and, seeing no one, took the clothes. The plowman saw him from afar and said to the layman, 'Do not take my clothes!' The layman did not hear and thought they had no owner, so he took the clothes. The plowman then chased after him and said to the layman, 'Should your conduct not be not-giving and taking?' The layman replied, 'I thought they had no owner, so I took them! Is that the proper way to act?' The plowman said, 'These are my clothes.' The layman said, 'If they are your clothes, then you can take them.' The layman doubted: 'Perhaps I have committed an unpardonable offense?' So he went to the Buddha to inquire about this matter. The Buddha, knowing the situation, asked, 'With what intention did you take them?' The layman replied, 'I thought they had no owner.' The Buddha said, 'There is no offense. From now on, when taking things, carefully consider whether the item has an owner, even if no one is guarding it. If you intend to steal but have not yet taken it, you commit a minor pardonable offense; if you take it and the value is less than five coins, you commit a medium pardonable offense; if you take it and the value is five coins or more, you commit an unpardonable offense.' The Third Precept Against Sexual Misconduct The Buddha told the Bhikkhus (Buddhist monks): 'An Upasaka (a male Buddhist devotee) should not generate lustful thoughts or feelings, and should not even give rise to such a mind, let alone engage in impure and evil deeds that are the root of desire, hatred (anger), and delusion (ignorance). In this context, committing sexual misconduct has four aspects: ...' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
