Visuddhimagga I-27

Dutiyaduke abhisamācāroti uttamasamācāro.

（2）（等正行、初梵行）第二种二法：「等正行」，为最上的行为。

Ñ(I,27): 3. In the second dyad[ˈdaiæd] good behaviour is the best kind of behaviour.

Abhisamācāro eva ābhisamācārikaṃ. Abhisamācāraṃ vā ārabbha paññattaṃ ābhisamācārikaṃ, ājīvaṭṭhamakato avasesasīlassetaṃ adhivacanaṃ.

等正行即等正行戒，或等正行是制定关于应行的等正行戒。这除了活命第八的戒外，其它的都是同义语。

Ñ: Good behaviour itself is that of good behaviour; or what is announced for the sake of good behaviour is that of good behaviour. This is a term for virtue other than that which has livelihood as eighth.

Maggabrahmacariyassa ādibhāvabhūtanti ādibrahmacariyakaṃ, ājīvaṭṭhamakasīlassetaṃ adhivacanaṃ.

「初梵行」是说为道梵行的初步。活命第八即是此戒的同义语。

Ñ: It is the initial stage of the life of purity consisting in the path, thus it is that of the beginning of the life of purity. This is a term for the virtue that has livelihood as eighth.

Tañhi maggassa ādibhāvabhūtaṃ, pubbabhāgeyeva parisodhetabbato.

因为是修行者最初必须清净的部分，故说为道的初步。

Ñ: It is the initial stage of the path because it has actually to be purified in the prior stage too.

Sayādaw U Sīlānanda: [too]. Han: Yes, kindly delete “too”.

Tenāha – ‘‘pubbeva kho panassa kāyakammaṃ vacīkammaṃ ājīvo suparisuddho hotī’’ti (ma. ni. 3.431).

如说「首先他的身业、语业和活命已极清净」。

Ñ: Hence it is said: 'But his bodily action, his verbal action, and his livelihood have already been purified earlier' (M.iii,289).

Yāni vā sikkhāpadāni khuddānukhuddakānīti vuttāni, idaṃ ābhisamācārikasīlaṃ.

或者说微细的学处为[PTS 012] 等正行戒；

Ñ: Or the training precepts called 'lesser and minor' (D.ii,154) [12] are that of good behaviour;

Sesaṃ ādibrahmacariyakaṃ.

其余的为初梵行戒。

Ñ: the rest are that of the beginning of the life of purity.

Ubhatovibhaṅgapariyāpannaṃ vā ādibrahmacariyakaṃ.

或以两种毗崩伽[pí bēng jiā]中所包摄的戒为初梵行；

Ñ: Or what is included in the Double Code (the bhikkhus' and bhikkhunis' Pātimokkha) is that of the beginning of the life of purity;

Khandhakavattapariyāpannaṃ ābhisamācārikaṃ.

犍度品所包摄的义务为等正行。

Ñ: and that included in the duties set out in the Khandhakas [of Vinaya] is that of good behaviour.

Tassa sampattiyā ādibrahmacariyakaṃ sampajjati.

由于等正行的成就而初梵行戒才能成就。

Ñ: Through its perfection that of the beginning of the life of purity comes to be perfected.

Tenevāha – ‘‘so vata, bhikkhave, bhikkhu ābhisamācārikaṃ dhammaṃ aparipūretvā ādibrahmacariyakaṃ dhammaṃ paripūressatīti netaṃ ṭhānaṃ vijjatī’’ti (a. ni. 5.21).

故说「诸比丘！若彼比丘不得等正行法的圆满而能得初梵行法的圆满者，实无是处」。

Ñ: Hence it is said also 'that this bhikkhu shall fulfil the state consisting in the beginning of the life of purity without having fulfilled the state consisting in good behaviour — that is not possible' (A.iii,14-15).

Evaṃ ābhisamācārikaādibrahmacariyakavasena duvidhaṃ.

这是等正行、初梵行二种。

Ñ: So it is of two kinds as that of good behaviour and that of the beginning of the life of purity.
