English version The Essential Records on Upholding and Violating the Bodhisattva Precepts Composed by Śramaṇa Yuanxiao of Silla The Bodhisattva precepts are the great ferry for returning to the source, and the essential gateway for abandoning evil and embracing righteousness. However, the appearances of evil and righteousness are easily confused, and the natures of sin and merit are difficult to distinguish. Why is this? Because sometimes the inner intention is truly evil, while the outward appearance seems righteous; or the external actions are similar to defilement, while the inner heart is pure and clean; or some actions seem to bring a small amount of merit, but lead to great misfortune; or some mental actions accord with profound principles, but violate shallow norms. Therefore, those Daoists who specialize in worldly gains, and Śramaṇas who embezzle privately, always focus on superficial similarities, and lose the true essence. They always demand meticulous adherence to minor precepts, while pursuing shallow practices. Now, I will abandon superficial matters, and preserve profound principles; remove similar appearances, and pursue reality. To prevent myself from negligence and forgetfulness, I will extract the key points, and record and distinguish them. I hope that those with the same aspirations will study and decide on them in detail. The key to upholding and violating the precepts has three aspects: first, the gate of light and heavy; second, the gate of shallow and deep; and third, the gate of clarifying the ultimate upholding and violating. Within the first aspect, there are two sentences. First, there is the general judgment of light and heavy, and then there is the separate display of differences. Speaking of the general judgment, in light and heavy offenses, the branch categories are discussed in detail, totaling eighty-four thousand. To summarize the key points, they can be divided into three major categories, or forty-four types, as stated in the 'Dharma Precepts'; or forty-eight types, as judged in the 'Tara Precepts'; or there are two hundred and forty-six light offenses, as established in the 'Pratimoksha Sutra'. In this second classification, there are common and uncommon aspects. The appearances of common and uncommon can be understood according to the text. Among the heavy precepts, there are ten in total. Regarding their categories, there are also three types. Or there are common minor heavy offenses, referring to the first four; or there are uncommon heavy offenses, referring to the last four; or the six heavy offenses for lay Bodhisattvas are established, referring to the first six of the ten heavy offenses. This includes both common and uncommon aspects. The general judgment of the meaning and categories of light and heavy offenses is like this. If you want to understand the differences, now, according to the 'Dharma Precepts', distinguish the differences in their nature and appearance. The text says: 'Regarding cases of violation, is it defiled or undefiled? Is it inferior, middling, or superior grade?' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version It should be understood that 'desire' (greed) and 'sorrow' (sadness), although the actions performed may be the same, 'offense' (violation of precepts) and 'non-offense' (no violation of precepts) are different. 'Offense' refers to actions that violate precepts due to four causes. 'Non-offense' refers to actions that do not violate precepts due to three conditions. What are these three conditions? They are: if the mind is extremely confused, or if one is compelled by severe suffering, or if one has never received pure precepts. These three are considered 'non-offense' and apply to all precepts. Specific 'non-offense' situations for individual precepts can be found in the detailed explanations in the texts. Among 'offenses,' there are two categories to be aware of: serious offenses belong to the inner group (referring to fundamental precepts), while among minor offenses, the upper grade is considered serious, and light offenses should be recognized. Distinguishing between defiled and non-defiled offenses, generally speaking, among the four causes, offenses committed due to ignorance or negligence are non-defiled. Offenses committed due to strong afflictions or contempt are defiled. Specific cases of defiled and non-defiled offenses can also be understood according to the texts. Whenever 'although' is mentioned, the one or two commentators will use the initial precept to illustrate its characteristics. Regarding praise and blame, there are four distinctions. If one praises oneself and blames others to inspire faith in the other person, it is meritorious rather than an offense. If one praises oneself and blames others due to negligence or an indifferent mind, it is an offense but not defiled. If one praises oneself and blames others out of love or hatred for others, it is defiled but not a serious offense. If one praises oneself and blames others out of greed for gain and respect, it is a serious offense rather than a light offense. Within the fourth situation, there are three grades. The reasons for these three grades also come from two paths: due to circumstances and due to afflictive entanglements. Due to afflictive entanglements, if the afflictive entanglement is present but not extremely intense, or if one feels shame, it is a soft grade. Although it is extremely intense, without shame or considering it a virtue, it belongs to the middle grade. Without any shame, deeply enjoying it, and considering it a merit, it is called the upper grade. Due to circumstances, if one slanders an individual, it is a soft grade. If one slanders a group, it is the middle grade. Universally slandering many people is the upper grade. Within the upper grade, there is more than one type of offense. According to the degree of difficulty in distinguishing them, three pairs are briefly shown. People within Buddhism mostly rely on the Three Learnings (sila, samadhi, prajna) to create demonic events similar to the Buddha's path, like a worm inside a lion's body that eats the lion, because nothing else can do it. The first pair relies on --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

于心学。有二类虫。食灭佛法。一由贪故。二由慢故。由贪故者。如有一类。闲居静虑。离诸散乱。摄心禅门。由心澄静。仿佛有见。或由邪神加力令识。于时由自少闻不别邪正。又欲引致名利恭敬。随所见识。令他闻知。耀诸世人。咸疑是圣。此由独扬似圣之迹。普抑诸僧。为无可归。以破佛法。故得重罪。是谓诸僧之大贼也。由慢故者。如有一类。长住深山。有所得心。修寂静业。魔知彼心。可以动坏。发空中声。赞其所行。其人由是。起自高心。普抑诸僧住人间者。谁当称美尔等所行。此人罪过重于前者。是谓菩萨旃陀罗也。第二双者。依于戒学。有二类虫。食灭佛法。一坐邪戒。二坐正戒。坐邪戒者。如有一类。性非质直或承邪戒。或自邪念。不衣丝麻。不食五谷。变欲贪求利养恭敬。自扬无比。诳诸痴类。希望群愚咸仰己德。普抑一切无异迹者。由是内以伤真。外以乱人。伤乱之罪。莫是为先也。坐正戒者。如有一类。性是浅近。于世大运。多慢缓时。独正其身。威仪无缺。便起自高湋池之心。慢毁乘急戒缓之众。此人全其不善。以毁大禁。转福为祸莫斯为甚也。问邪戒之罪。应如所说。持正戒者。何必是罪。所以然者。如有一类。内无诸缠。不观余人作与不作。唯察自心。独持正戒。如是菩萨何由成犯。 现代汉语译本: 关于心学,有两类虫子会蚕食佛法。一类是由于贪婪,另一类是由于傲慢。 由于贪婪的,比如有一类人,喜欢独自隐居,安静地思考,远离各种干扰,专注于禅定。由于内心澄澈平静,仿佛有所领悟。或者由于邪神的力量加持,使他们产生某种认知。这时,由于自己见识浅薄,不能分辨邪正,又想借此引来名利和恭敬,便将自己所见所识到处宣扬,迷惑世人,让人们都以为他们是圣人。这些人通过抬高自己虚假的圣人形象,贬低其他僧人,使人们无所适从,以此来破坏佛法,因此犯下重罪。这些人是僧团中的大贼。 由于傲慢的,比如有一类人,长期居住在深山中,自以为有所得,修习寂静之业。魔知道他们的心思,可以加以利用来破坏他们的修行,便在空中发出声音,赞美他们的行为。这些人因此生起高傲之心,贬低那些住在人间的僧人,认为没有人会赞美他们的修行。这种人的罪过比前一种人更重,是所谓的旃陀罗(贱民)菩萨。 第二组,关于戒律,也有两类虫子会蚕食佛法。一类是执着于邪戒,另一类是执着于正戒。 执着于邪戒的,比如有一类人,天性不正直,或者接受了邪戒,或者自己产生了邪念,不穿丝麻,不吃五谷,却想以此来贪求利益和恭敬,自我吹嘘,欺骗那些愚昧的人,希望愚人们都仰慕自己的德行,贬低一切没有这些怪异行为的人。这样的人,对内伤害了自己的真性,对外扰乱了他人。这种伤人乱人的罪过,没有比这更严重的了。 执着于正戒的,比如有一类人,天性浅薄,在世风日下,人们大多懈怠的时候,独自端正自己的行为,威仪没有丝毫缺失,便因此生起高傲自满之心,轻慢毁谤那些持戒不严谨的人。这种人完全是不善良的,因为他们毁谤了大众的戒律,将福德转变为祸患,没有比这更糟糕的了。 有人问:执着于邪戒的罪过,应该像您所说的那样。但是,持守正戒的人,为什么也一定是罪过呢? 回答说:因为如果有一类人,内心没有各种烦恼,不观察其他人是否持戒,只是反省自己的内心,独自持守正戒,这样的菩萨怎么会犯错呢?
