English version If disciplinary actions against monks from different regions are handled across years, all the punishments are invalid. Both residences have five sections of text. Regarding the causes and conditions, there are two points: first, from the initial expression of displeasure onwards, clarifying the origin of the transgression; second, from the time when the World-Honored One started from Rajagriha (王舍城) to the end, clarifying that Kashyapa (迦叶) pointed out the transgression and reported it to the Buddha, explaining that the Tathagata extensively prevented begging, repeatedly reprimanded, and established precepts. In the extensive explanation, there are five subsections: first, from the beginning to the point where it is sufficient to be obstructive, briefly explaining the root of the precepts; second, from those monks seeing no obstruction to 'thus again and again,' clarifying the dispensation for begging; third, from that time when the Sangha began to 'should be given dispensation,' clarifying that the Sangha should consider whether or not to grant dispensation; fourth, from 'should be given thus' to mud plastering, clarifying that the Sangha grants dispensation; fifth, from 'if not punished by the Sangha excessively' to the end, clarifying the severity of the offense, totaling fifteen sentences. The Sangha not giving punishment serves as the beginning, totaling six sentences. The four offenses serve as one sentence. The Sangha not giving punishment, excessive, with difficulty but without obstruction serves as the second sentence. The Sangha not giving punishment, excessive, without difficulty but with obstruction serves as the third sentence. The Sangha not giving punishment, not excessive, with difficulty and with obstruction serves as the fourth sentence. The Sangha not giving punishment, not excessive, with difficulty but without obstruction serves as the fifth sentence. The Sangha not giving punishment, not excessive, without difficulty but with obstruction serves as the sixth sentence. The Sangha giving punishment, excessive, with difficulty and with obstruction serves as the seventh sentence. The Sangha giving punishment, excessive, with difficulty but without obstruction serves as the eighth sentence. The Sangha giving punishment, excessive, without difficulty but with obstruction serves as the ninth sentence. The Sangha giving punishment, not excessive, with difficulty and with obstruction serves as the tenth sentence. The Sangha giving punishment, not excessive, with difficulty but without obstruction serves as the eleventh sentence. The Sangha giving punishment, not excessive, without difficulty but with obstruction serves as the twelfth sentence. The Sangha giving punishment, excessive, without difficulty and without obstruction serves as the thirteenth sentence. Two sentences are missing, totaling fifteen sentences. Both residences need dispensation for errands, but the latter residence has a person in charge to discern property for making, therefore obtaining excess is also without offense. Instructing someone to make a residence for oneself, completing it results in a Sanghavasesa offense. Directly instructing others to make a private residence, not for oneself, results in a Thullaccaya offense. Oneself making a private residence for others also results in a Thullaccaya offense. Not completing it all results in a Dukkata offense. Guests of four or more people can make private residences. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

English version: Even if a monk builds a dwelling, it should not be built in a place of difficulty. If it is built in a place of difficulty, a Dukkata (a minor offense) is incurred. Building an unlawful dwelling, from the beginning up to the windows, incurs Dukkata. From above the windows, if unfinished, Sthulatyaya (a moderate offense) is incurred; if completed, Sanghavasesa (a serious offense) is incurred. Subsequent use also incurs Dukkata. The Vinaya states, 'Thinking of an unassigned act as assigned,' means the Karma (action, deed) is not valid. 'Thinking of an assigned act as unassigned,' means the Karma is actually invalid, but it is thought to be valid. The following doubts are similar. If a Sramanera (novice monk) receives permission to build a dwelling, and before it is completed, he receives full ordination (Upasampada, becoming a fully ordained monk), and then completes it, this Bhikkhu (monk) incurs no offense, because he received the Sangha's (monastic community) permission, and the Karma was without error. A Bhikkhuni (nun) building an excessive dwelling without permission incurs two ultimate Sthulatyayas. A Bhikkhu building an excessive dwelling without permission incurs Sthulatyaya in the middle stages. All are thinking of a place of difficulty as a place of ease, incurring ultimate Dukkata. The following four sentences are all thinking of a place of obstruction as a place of ease, and are the same. If a patron builds a large dwelling without permission, there are five sections in the precept, as mentioned above. There are two sections in the cause and condition, from the beginning to 'and cutting timber to build a large dwelling,' which clearly explains the arising of the offense. From 'When the Bhikkhus heard' below to 'should be spoken thus,' the second is the Bhikkhus reporting the offense to the Buddha. Regarding the extensive explanation, there are five sections of text, from the beginning to 'this is called a place without obstruction,' the first is a brief explanation of the precept. From 'That Bhikkhu' below to 'the second and third,' the second is the explanation of the assignment. From 'The Sangha should observe' below to 'should be assigned,' the third is the explanation of the Sangha measuring whether it is appropriate to give or not give. From 'Should be given thus' below to 'the plastering is finished,' the fourth is the explanation of the assignment. From 'If the Sangha does not appoint an assigner' below to the end, it explains the amount of offense incurred. Making seven sentences. Recorded by Xuan Jue on the eighth day of the third month, Dingwei, of the first year of Baoding, year of Xinsi. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
