Visuddhimagga II-28

Pabhedato pana ayampi tividho hoti. Tattha ukkaṭṭho puratopi pacchatopi āhaṭabhikkhaṃ gaṇhati, pattadvāre ṭhatvā pattaṃ gaṇhantānampi deti, paṭikkamanaṃ āharitvā dinnabhikkhampi gaṇhati, taṃ divasaṃ pana nisīditvā bhikkhaṃ na gaṇhati.

(区别)其区别亦有三种:此中上者,行乞时在他的前面与后面有人送与施食,他也接受,或者行近施家的门外而立的时候,施家取其钵时也给他,盛满施食再送回他亦接受,然而那一天如果要他坐在自己的住所等待施食则不取。

Ñ(II,28): This too has three grades. Herein, one who is strict takes alms brought both from before and from behind, and he gives the bowl to those who take it while he stands outside a door. He also takes alms brought to the refectory and given there. But he does not take alms by sitting [and waiting for it to be brought later] that day.

Sayādaw U Sīlānanda: [from before = from next house].


Han: Mahāsī Sayādaw: one who is strict takes alms brought both from the house that he has passed, and from the next house that he will be going.



Majjhimo taṃ divasaṃ nisīditvāpi gaṇhati, svātanāya pana nādhivāseti.

中者,如果要他那一天坐在自己的住所而领施食,他也接受,不过第二天再如是便不接受。

Ñ: The medium one takes it as well by sitting [and waiting for it to be brought later] that day; but he does not consent to [its being brought] the next day.



Mudukosvātanāyapi punadivasāyapi bhikkhaṃ adhivāseti.

下者,则明天又明天的施食也接受。

Ñ: The mild one consents to alms [being brought] on the next day and on the day after.



Te ubhopi serivihārasukhaṃ na labhanti, ukkaṭṭhova labhati.

然中下二者未得无依自由之乐,而上者得之。

Ñ: Both these last miss the joy of an independent life.

Sayādaw U Sīlānanda: Which mean “sometimes I cannot do what I wanted to do because I have accepted an invitation. I have to go to the invitation.”



Ekasmiṃ kira gāme ariyavaṃso hoti, ukkaṭṭho itare āha – ‘‘āyāmāvuso, dhammasavanāyā’’ti.

据说:有一次某村中正在讲《圣种经》,一位上者对其他二位(中下者)说:「贤者!让我们去听法吧?」

Ñ: There is, perhaps, a preaching on the noble ones' heritages (A.ii,28) in some village. The strict one says to the others 'Let us go, friends, and listen to the Dhamma'.



Tesu eko ekenamhi, bhante, manussena nisīdāpitoti āha.

其中的一位答道:「大德!我因为昨天被一人请坐在住处等他今天的施食所约束啦!」

Ñ: One of them says 'I have been made to sit [and wait] by a man, venerable sir',



Aparo mayā, bhante, svātanāya ekassa bhikkhā adhivāsitāti.

另一位亦说:「我昨天亦已答应人家明天的施食了!」

Ñ: and the other 'I have consented to [receive] alms tomorrow, venerable sir'.



Evaṃ te ubho parihīnā. Itaro pātova piṇḍāya caritvā gantvā dhammarasaṃ paṭisaṃvedesi.

于是他俩便失掉闻法的机会。但那上者则于早晨出去乞食之后,便去领受法味 [PTS 067] 之乐。

Ñ: So they are both losers. The other wanders for alms in the morning and then he goes and savours the taste of the Dhamma. [67]



Imesaṃ pana tiṇṇampi saṅghabhattādiatirekalābhaṃ sāditakkhaṇeva dhutaṅgaṃ bhijjati. Ayamettha bhedo.

(破坏)这三种人,如果接受了僧伽食等余分之食的剎那,便算破坏了头陀支。这是破坏。

Ñ: The moment any one of these three agrees to the extra gain consisting of a meal given to the Order, etc., his ascetic practice is broken. This is the breach in this instance.
