English version After washing hands and rinsing the mouth, return to the seat, each recites a verse and then departs. When walking, one should lower the head and look at the ground, not exceeding three feet, reciting mantras softly and walking calmly. When walking, one must not walk over the ground, must not walk by jumping, must not walk with both feet together, must not walk on one foot, must not walk shaking the head, must not walk shaking the body, must not walk swinging both arms, must not walk shaking the buttocks, must not walk with a crooked body, must not walk talking and laughing, must not walk side by side with men, must not walk talking to men, must not walk laughing with men. Walking should be like the Buddha's walking, standing should be like the Buddha's standing, looking should be like the Buddha's looking, speaking should be like the Buddha's speaking. One must not walk with high steps, must not walk running, must not walk slowly, must not walk with low steps. When walking, one should lift the foot, the foot should be three and a half inches off the ground, and three steps should be one pace. Returning to the pagoda temple, one should prostrate to the Buddha, and after prostrating to the Buddha, return to the room, prostrate to the scriptures and images, and repent of one's own impurity. 'Now eating the food of the donor (Danyue, refers to a person who donates property), one should make all beings, human and non-human, in the ten directions of the world free from the state of being female. May the donor's family be peaceful in this life. May they soon attain the Buddha's thirty-two marks and eighty minor characteristics, be fully endowed with the ten powers, and may all beings be saved, attain immeasurable blessings, and all generate the intention to seek the great path and attain true enlightenment.' One who makes such a vow is a Bhikkhuni (bǐqiūní, a Buddhist nun). One who violates these rules is not a virtuous Bhikkhuni. After a Bhikkhuni receives food from a donor, she returns to her room to quietly cultivate her virtue, studying the Six Perfections (liùdù, referring to generosity, discipline, patience, diligence, concentration, and wisdom) without limit. They should inspect and admonish each other, severing desires and emotions, without any defilement, with the mind focused on emptiness and tranquility, without any remaining fetters, and with a pure aspiration, one can quickly attain the Way. If no one invites offerings, there is nothing to be surprised about begging for food oneself. If there is no food today, one does not speak unless it is for the sake of the Way, and one does not eat at the wrong time. After midday, one must not walk in the streets, and after midday one must never eat again. One should remain deeply hidden in the room, walking mindfully according to the Dharma. One who violates these rules is not a virtuous Bhikkhuni. When a Bhikkhuni enters the room, there are thirteen things to be mindful of. What are these thirteen things? The first is that one should always remind oneself of the impurity of the body, which deludes people and is completely entangled in the roots of sin, unable to encourage oneself. The second is that one should always... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

当自念过恶，不能自还。三者常当自念罪原深，不能自出。四者常当自念，多淫欲态，不能自净。五者常当自念，淫欲乃乱清净道志，不能自拔。六者常当自念，破坏道意，不能远离。七者常当自念，心如水中船，多欲载人，忽然没水中，尽亡其人，不能自全。八者常当自念，口舌丹赤迷惑人心，心乱意惑目无所见。九者常当自念，身体是锦彩之囊，用盛臭屎，表甚姝好；其人利之近之必污，不净流出臭不可当。十者常当自念，态恶妖治姿。则贡高自快欲动人心。十一者常当自念弱态，欲令人哀之，不能自止。十二者常当自念，受女人形为欲态自缠，不能自免。十三者常当自念恃怙，恶露不净，不能自解。是为入室十三者。匿事真为极大罪。若有勇猛𧤀戾女人，自观态欲无离此患，深思见谛能断态欲。自拔为道行如戒行，依按法律礼节安详，言如威仪，可疾得作男子身，宿识故存。复加劝助，灭诸思想，可得须陀洹。亦可得斯陀含、阿那含、阿难汉、辟支佛道。若不取证，无数劫中当成作佛。 “比丘尼入室，有四事法。何等为四？一者当自伏意，无起灭心，心存于道。二者当自捡挍，心常束修，志存于法。三者当自念恶露欲灭意患，无放逸心自捐睡卧，谨敕修身不自憍恣约己自守。四者当建立戒法，使众人乐 现代汉语译本 应当经常反思自己的过错，明白自己无法弥补。 应当经常反思罪恶的根源深重，自己无法从中解脱。 应当经常反思自己有太多的淫欲之态，无法使自己清净。 应当经常反思淫欲会扰乱清净的修道之心，自己无法从中摆脱。 应当经常反思自己破坏修道的意念，无法远离。 应当经常反思自己的心就像水中的船，承载着太多的欲望，一旦沉入水中，船上的人都会丧命，自己无法保全。 应当经常反思自己的口舌像丹砂一样鲜红，迷惑人心，心神混乱，眼睛也看不清东西。 应当经常反思自己的身体就像一个用锦绣彩缎做成的袋子，用来盛放臭秽的粪便，外表却非常美好；人们贪图它而接近它，必然会被玷污，不干净的东西流出来，臭气令人难以忍受。 应当经常反思自己姿态丑恶，却用妖艳的妆容来装饰，以此来贡高自大，想要挑动人心。 应当经常反思自己装出柔弱的样子，想要博得别人的怜悯，却无法停止。 应当经常反思自己受女人的身体所束缚，被淫欲之态所缠绕，无法从中解脱。 应当经常反思自己所依赖的身体充满了污秽不净之物，无法自我解脱。这就是比丘尼入室静修时应当反思的十三件事。隐瞒罪恶是极大的罪过。如果有一个勇猛刚烈的女人，自己观察到自己的姿态和欲望，没有离开这些祸患，深入思考，见到真谛，能够断除姿态和欲望，自我解脱，以修道之心行持戒律，依照法律礼节安详行事，言语庄重有威仪，就可以迅速地转为男子之身，并且保留着前世的记忆。如果再加以劝勉帮助，灭除各种思想，就可以证得须陀洹（Srotapanna，入流果）。也可以证得斯陀含（Sakrdagamin，一来果）、阿那含（Anagamin，不还果）、阿罗汉（Arhat，无学果）、辟支佛（Pratyekabuddha，缘觉）的果位。如果不取证果，无数劫中应当成就佛果。 比丘尼入室静修，有四件事需要遵循。哪四件事呢？ 第一，应当降伏自己的意念，不起任何妄念，心中专注于道。 第二，应当自我检查，内心经常约束自己，志向专注于佛法。 第三，应当常常思念身体的污秽不净，想要灭除淫欲的祸患，不放纵自己的心，舍弃睡眠，谨慎地修身养性，不骄傲放纵，约束自己，守护自己的行为。 第四，应当建立戒律，使众人喜悦。

English version One should constantly reflect on one's past misdeeds, understanding that one cannot make amends. One should constantly reflect on the deep roots of one's sins, realizing that one cannot escape from them. One should constantly reflect on having too many lustful behaviors, unable to purify oneself. One should constantly reflect on how lust disrupts the pure mind of cultivation, unable to break free from it. One should constantly reflect on destroying the intention to cultivate, unable to stay away. One should constantly reflect on one's mind being like a boat in the water, carrying too many desires; once it sinks, everyone on board will perish, and one cannot save oneself. One should constantly reflect on one's tongue being as red as cinnabar, deceiving people's hearts, causing mental confusion, and blinding the eyes. One should constantly reflect on one's body being like a brocade bag filled with foul-smelling excrement, yet appearing beautiful on the outside; people who covet it and approach it will inevitably be defiled, and the uncleanliness that flows out is unbearably foul. One should constantly reflect on one's ugly nature, yet adorning oneself with seductive makeup, thereby becoming arrogant and wanting to stir people's hearts. One should constantly reflect on feigning weakness, wanting to gain others' pity, yet unable to stop. One should constantly reflect on being bound by the form of a woman, entangled by lustful behaviors, unable to escape. One should constantly reflect on relying on a body full of filth and impurity, unable to liberate oneself. These are the thirteen things a Bhikshuni (Buddhist nun) should reflect on when entering a secluded room. Concealing sins is a great offense. If there is a courageous and fierce woman who observes her own behaviors and desires, and has not left these troubles, deeply contemplates, sees the truth, and is able to cut off behaviors and desires, liberating herself, practicing the precepts with a mind of cultivation, acting peacefully according to the law and etiquette, and speaking with dignity and composure, she can quickly transform into a male body and retain memories of her past life. If she is further encouraged and assisted, eliminating all thoughts, she can attain Srotapanna (stream-enterer). She can also attain Sakrdagamin (once-returner), Anagamin (non-returner), Arhat (worthy one), and Pratyekabuddha (solitary Buddha). If one does not attain enlightenment, one should become a Buddha in countless kalpas (eons). When a Bhikshuni (Buddhist nun) enters a secluded room, there are four things to follow. What are the four things? First, one should subdue one's mind, not give rise to any deluded thoughts, and focus one's mind on the path. Second, one should examine oneself, constantly restrain oneself inwardly, and focus one's aspirations on the Dharma (Buddhist teachings). Third, one should constantly contemplate the filth and impurity of the body, wanting to eliminate the troubles of lust, not indulge one's mind, abandon sleep, carefully cultivate oneself, not be arrogant or indulgent, restrain oneself, and guard one's behavior. Fourth, one should establish the precepts, making everyone happy. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
