English version: She must not walk with sidelong glances, must not buy or sell people, must not cause people to slander each other due to disputes over profit and loss. One who violates these precepts is not a Śrāmaṇerī (female novice). ‘Eighth, a Śrāmaṇerī (female novice) must not study witchcraft for the rest of her life, must not make poisonous potions to harm people, must not say which days are good and which are not, must not divine good or bad omens, must not look up at the sky to calculate calendars, must not calculate the waxing and waning of the moon and solar and lunar eclipses, must not predict the changes and falls of stars, mountain collapses and earthquakes, wind, rain, floods, droughts, and predict the cold and heat of the year. Even if she is sick, she must not seek help from these things. She must not discuss national affairs, saying which country is strong and which is weak, which country's people are strong and which are weak, whether it is possible to send troops to fight, what the outcome of the attack will be, and whether it is possible to obtain wealth to establish a family business. She must not say that a certain family is rich and happy, and a certain family is poor and suffering, must not tell fortunes, saying that someone has a rich or poor face, must not cut down trees to build houses. She must not pick fresh flowers with her own hands to offer to the Buddha. If someone brings flowers to offer to the Buddha, she should accept them and recite the mantra three times to bless them. She should have compassion for people, these flowers are illusory and will not last long, all people are also illusory, they are all born from a woman's body and will not last long, enduring the pain of birth. Birth, old age, sickness, and death, people cry and mourn for each other, worry and are troubled, their minds are confused, good spirits stay away, evil spirits harass them, and their bodies will eventually die. Therefore, everything is like an illusion and will not last long. One who violates these precepts is not a Śrāmaṇerī (female novice).’ ‘Ninth, a Śrāmaṇerī (female novice) should keep men and women separate for the rest of her life, and should not stay in the same room, and her footsteps should not coincide with the footsteps of men. She must not ride in the same boat or carriage with a man, must not wear clothes of the same color as a man, must not sit on the same seat with a man, must not eat from the same vessel with a man, must not dye colors with a man, must not cut and sew clothes with a man, must not wash clothes with a man, must not ask for anything from a man. If a man offers good things, she should carefully observe them, should stay away from suspicion, and think carefully. She must not exchange letters, borrowing others to deliver them. If someone makes offerings, she should not accept them either. If she wants to go out, she must be accompanied by an elder, and must not go out alone. She must be vigilant when traveling, and if she sees beauty’ --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

不清净。不得别行独止一室而宿也。有犯斯戒，非沙弥尼也。 “十者沙弥尼尽形寿身不犯恶。口不犯恶、心不犯恶，言行相应。非贤不友、非圣不宗。何以故非贤不友也？夫贤者心无起灭故。何以故非圣不宗也？夫圣无缚着之色，灭断种姓贪垢已尽故。不宗不孝之子、屠儿贼寇嗜酒之徒，志趣邪冥履行凶危，慎莫交游往来，往来者与之滓浊毁损道行。坚当自持。无大笑戏调，不得奔走着长者前，不得仰头而行，不得数与国王相见。若道街里有伎乐，不得攀垣墙视之、不得倚壁而视。不得交脚而坐，不得展脚而坐，不得伏坐上而语。常当自羞耻女人恶露。有犯斯戒，非沙弥尼也。” 尔时比丘尼裘昙弥受佛十戒，一一不失。如十戒行之，无有漏缺。常在佛左右，遂尔三年。聪明智慧博览众经，欢喜不乱志如大山，心端意正平直无邪，恒自愍伤及一切人，蜎飞蠕动蚑行之类莫不悲叹，劝化善法终离恼患。三年之中未常短愆，复还诣佛稽首陈情，叩头悔过靡所不言。“佛有慈慧告诉罪患，以见成立以脱恶愆。万不惟恨愿启一言：十戒便止，复有残余。十戒微少不足设心，愿告异戒令心酸勤。当学问无有懈慢，当如法律行菩萨焉。” 佛告比丘尼裘昙弥：“汝行十戒如法者，有大戒名具足，真谛行之疾得 现代汉语译本 不清净。不得独自一人住在单独的房间里。如果违反这条戒律，就不是沙弥尼（Śrāmaṇerī，沙弥尼）。 ‘十者，沙弥尼尽其一生，身不作恶，口不作恶，心不作恶，言行一致。不与不贤之人为友，不尊崇非圣之人。为什么不与不贤之人为友呢？因为贤者内心没有生灭变化。为什么不尊崇非圣之人呢？因为圣人没有对色（rūpa，色）的执着，已经断灭了种姓（gotra，种姓）的贪欲和污垢。不要尊崇不孝顺的儿子、屠夫、盗贼、嗜酒之徒，他们志向邪恶，行为凶险，要谨慎，不要与他们交往，交往会使你的修行变得污浊，毁损你的道行。要坚定地自我约束。不要大笑嬉闹，不得奔跑在长者面前，不得仰头走路，不得频繁与国王相见。如果街道里有歌舞表演，不得攀爬墙壁观看，不得靠在墙上观看。不得交叉双腿而坐，不得伸直双腿而坐，不得趴在座位上说话。要常常为自己身为女人而感到羞耻。如果违反这条戒律，就不是沙弥尼。’ 当时，比丘尼（Bhikkhunī，比丘尼）乔昙弥（Gautamī，乔昙弥）接受了佛陀的十戒，每一条都没有违犯。她按照这十戒修行，没有丝毫遗漏。她常常在佛陀左右，就这样过了三年。她聪明智慧，广泛阅读各种经典，欢喜而不心乱，意志坚定如大山，心地端正，意念正直，平正无邪，常常怜悯自己和一切众生，即使是微小的飞虫、蠕动的虫子，都无不为之悲叹，劝导他们行善，最终远离烦恼。在这三年中，她从未犯过任何过错，再次来到佛陀面前，稽首陈述自己的心意，叩头忏悔自己的过错，毫无隐瞒。‘佛陀具有慈悲和智慧，请您告诉我罪过的根源，以便我能建立正见，脱离恶业。我有一个小小的请求：仅仅遵守这十戒就足够了吗？是否还有其他的戒律？这十戒太少了，不足以让我全心投入，希望您能告诉我其他的戒律，让我内心感到更加精进。我应当努力学习，不懈怠，应当像法律一样奉行菩萨（Bodhisattva，菩萨）之道。’ 佛陀告诉比丘尼乔昙弥：‘你如果如法奉行这十戒，还有一种名为具足戒（upasampadā，具足戒）的大戒，真正修行的人能够迅速证得。

English version Impure. She must not dwell alone in a separate room. If she violates this precept, she is not a Śrāmaṇerī (沙弥尼, female novice). ‘Tenth, a Śrāmaṇerī (沙弥尼, female novice) for the rest of her life does not commit evil with her body, does not commit evil with her mouth, does not commit evil with her mind, her words and actions are consistent. She does not befriend the unwise, nor does she revere the non-holy. Why not befriend the unwise? Because the wise have no arising or ceasing in their minds. Why not revere the non-holy? Because the holy have no attachment to form (rūpa, 色), and have extinguished the defilements of greed and the taints of lineage (gotra, 种姓). Do not revere unfilial sons, butchers, thieves, or those addicted to alcohol, whose aspirations are evil and whose conduct is dangerous. Be cautious and do not associate with them, for association will defile your practice and damage your path. Be firm in self-restraint. Do not laugh loudly or joke, do not run in front of elders, do not walk with your head raised, and do not frequently meet with kings. If there is music and entertainment in the streets, do not climb walls to watch, nor lean against walls to watch. Do not sit with your legs crossed, do not sit with your legs extended, and do not lie on the seat while speaking. Always be ashamed of the impure nature of women. If she violates this precept, she is not a Śrāmaṇerī (沙弥尼, female novice).’ At that time, the Bhikkhunī (比丘尼, female monastic) Gautamī (乔昙弥, Gautamī) received the ten precepts of the Buddha, and did not violate any of them. She practiced according to these ten precepts, without any omission. She was always by the Buddha's side, and thus three years passed. She was intelligent and wise, widely read in various scriptures, joyful and undisturbed, her will as firm as a great mountain, her mind upright, her intentions righteous, fair and without evil. She constantly pitied herself and all beings, even the smallest flying insects and crawling creatures, and could not help but lament for them, exhorting them to do good and ultimately be free from suffering. In these three years, she had never committed any fault. She returned to the Buddha, bowed her head and expressed her feelings, kowtowing and repenting of her faults, without concealing anything. ‘Buddha, with your compassion and wisdom, please tell me the root of my sins, so that I can establish right view and escape evil karma. I have a small request: is it sufficient to only observe these ten precepts? Are there any other precepts? These ten precepts are too few, not enough to engage my whole heart. I hope you can tell me other precepts that will make my heart more diligent. I should study diligently, without laziness, and should practice the way of a Bodhisattva (菩萨, Bodhisattva) like the law.’ The Buddha said to the Bhikkhunī (比丘尼, female monastic) Gautamī (乔昙弥, Gautamī): ‘If you practice these ten precepts according to the Dharma, there is a greater precept called full ordination (upasampadā, 具足戒), which those who truly practice can quickly attain. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

作佛。凡有五百要事。若且复行十事可得道场，若不能行者不得至，终不能得是大具足戒也。” 尔时裘昙弥见佛说是语，大欢喜，前以头面着地，稽首礼佛足下，却长跪叉手白佛言：“受恩。使复受十戒之慧。”佛告沙弥尼：“已作沙弥尼，依其法律奉行十事，可疾得入。何等十？一者常有慈心，内外清白无伤害意。二者思念布施，无爱悭惜，不畜余遗，无窃盗意。三者常自净洁，静志自守，无淫邪垢。四者常当至诚，口无异言。五者常当自清净，终离蜜酒，无醉乱意。六者常自守志，无恶口骂人。七者常谦卑，无贡高坐珍宝高床。八者常持斋，日中乃食。九者常持等心，无嫉妒意。十者当观菩萨及诸师如视佛想，心常柔软无瞋怒意。是为沙弥尼十事法律也。 “沙弥尼复有十事法。何谓为十？一者当敬佛，至心无邪，持头脑着地，常自忏悔宿世罪行恶。二者常敬法，心存于道，慈孝于经。三者常敬于僧，心平不废，至诚有信。四者昼夜事师，心不懈惓如事佛。五者视一切众生，心皆平等，如自视其师。六者还自视诸沙弥尼，心敬爱之如视父母。七者视一切悉以等心，如视兄弟姊妹。八者视一切畜兽，心愍伤敬爱，如视夫主儿子。九者视一切置心树草木芭蕉，敬之视之无厌，如视身。十者当念十方天下 现代汉语译本：‘要成为佛，需要做到五百件重要的事情。如果能够进一步实践以下十件事，就可以证得道场（bodhimanda，觉悟之地）；如果不能做到，就无法到达，最终无法获得圆满具足戒（upasampadā，比丘或比丘尼的戒律）。’ 当时，裘昙弥（Gotami）见到佛陀说这些话，非常欢喜，上前以头面着地，顶礼佛足，然后长跪合掌对佛说：‘感谢佛陀的恩德，让我再次接受这十戒的智慧。’佛陀告诉沙弥尼（sramaneri，女见习僧侣）：‘已经成为沙弥尼，依照其法律奉行这十件事，就可以迅速证入。是哪十件事呢？一是常怀慈悲之心，内心外在都清净，没有伤害的念头。二是思念布施，没有吝啬之心，不积攒剩余之物，没有偷盗的念头。三是常常保持自身清洁，静心自守，没有淫邪污垢。四是常常应当真诚，口中没有虚妄之言。五是常常应当自身清净，永远远离蜜酒，没有醉酒昏乱的念头。六是常常坚守志向，没有恶语骂人。七是常常谦卑，没有贡高我慢，不坐珍宝高床。八是常常持斋，只在中午进食。九是常常保持平等之心，没有嫉妒的念头。十是应当视菩萨（bodhisattva，有情众生）和诸位老师如同看待佛陀一样，心中常常柔和，没有嗔怒的念头。这就是沙弥尼的十事法律。’ ‘沙弥尼还有十件事法。什么是十件事呢？一是应当尊敬佛陀（Buddha，觉悟者），至诚无邪，以头脑着地，常常忏悔宿世的罪行恶业。二是常常尊敬佛法（Dharma，宇宙真理），心中存有正道，慈悲孝顺于经典。三是常常尊敬僧伽（Sangha，僧团），心怀平等不废弃，至诚有信心。四是日夜侍奉师长，心中不懈怠疲倦，如同侍奉佛陀一样。五是看待一切众生，心中都平等，如同看待自己的老师一样。六是反过来看待诸位沙弥尼，心中敬爱她们如同看待父母一样。七是看待一切事物都以平等之心，如同看待兄弟姐妹一样。八是看待一切畜生，心中怜悯伤感敬爱，如同看待丈夫和儿子一样。九是看待一切放置心意的树木花草芭蕉，尊敬地看待它们没有厌倦，如同看待自身一样。十是应当忆念十方天下。’
