### 有難蘭若離衣戒二十九

> Difficult to Observe Dwelling Apart from Robe Precept, 29

五無因緣者。謂有命梵等難。不得會衣開不犯也。明多緣者。一者諸比丘夏中蘭若安居。若出乞食被取薪人放牛羊人持戶鉤開房偷衣物將去。因聽寄衣。為有恐畏失衣。即此為緣。無有日限。二緣者。因優波離滅淨衣。重恐遭雨不能勝。佛令離衣。問幾時得還。阿難計去二日住二日來二日。總計六日。因此開六日。第二緣也。必有他緣者。即此憂波離和僧往來開六夜。是一他緣也。因聚落比丘起過者。當四分家寄衣不作日限。因聚落中失火。蘭若比丘恐火燒衣。夜來會衣被招機過。遂制六夜不顯緣相致。今故師妄執者。古師云。疑恐怖但開六夜。過則結罪。既因過生制六夜定。何得更開文中但怖等緣不開餘緣也。古師唯許有恐怖緣。但開一度。是妄執也。今准諸部有緣皆開。五分佛塔和上緣等。皆開六夜。明了論聽法未了常開。為四分文中不明多緣。又不言多度。度是不顯緣相也。四分更不言有和上闍梨塔事等緣。開之文中不作此說。故道而不顯緣相也。餘同聚落戒說者。即此戒開文。若捨會失奪恐怖險難等。一同前戒不能繁引。故總攝之也。寄衣村裏。六夜合會作失奪燒等相不離。

> \*\*The Five Non-Causes\*\* refer to situations involving danger to life or violations of spiritual practice. Under such circumstances, being separated from one's robes does not constitute an offense. \*\*Clarifying the Many Conditions\*\*: First, there were monks dwelling in remote meditation places during the summer retreat. When they went out to beg for food, wood gatherers, cattle herders, or thieves might use hooks to open their rooms and steal their robes and belongings. Because of this, monks were permitted to entrust their robes elsewhere, as there was fear of losing them. This served as a valid condition, with no time limit imposed. Second, there was the case of Upali who cleaned his robes but feared they might be damaged by rain and unable to bear the weight. The Buddha permitted him to be away from his robes. When asked how long he could be away, Ananda calculated two days to travel, two days to stay, and two days to return—six days in total. Thus, the six-day allowance was established. This was the second condition. \*\*Additional External Conditions\*\*: This also includes cases like Upali's need to reconcile the monastic community, which allowed for six nights away—one such external condition. Regarding monks in villages who created offenses: According to the Four-Part Vinaya, when robes were entrusted in villages, no time limit was specified. But when a fire broke out in the village, monks in remote places feared their robes would burn and came at night to retrieve them—this led to accusations of misconduct. Therefore, the six-night rule was established. However, the specific conditions were not clearly stated in the text, which is why later teachers fell into confusion. \*\*Refuting Misunderstandings\*\*: Some ancient teachers claimed that the six-night allowance applied only to cases of fear or danger, and that exceeding it constituted an offense. Since the rule was born from such circumstances, they held that it was fixed at six nights, and no other conditions could be added. These ancient teachers only permitted the allowance for danger-related conditions and allowed it only once—this was their mistaken view. Now, according to the various Vinaya schools, any valid condition permits the allowance. In the Five-Part Vinaya, conditions such as the Buddha, one's preceptor, or one's teacher all permit the six-night allowance. In the Vinaya Commentary, the condition of not yet completing one's study of the Dharma allows an indefinite extension. The Four-Part Vinaya text does not clearly specify the many conditions, nor does it mention multiple instances of such allowances—this is what is meant by "not clarifying the conditions clearly." The Four-Part Vinaya also does not mention conditions involving preceptors, teachers, stupas, and so forth. Since the text does not state these, it is said that the conditions are not made explicit. \*\*Regarding the Rest Being Similar to the Village Dwelling Precept\*\*: This refers to the allowance clauses of this precept—such as losing robes, having them taken away, danger, or difficulty—which are the same as the previous precept. Since they cannot all be listed here, they are summarized collectively. When robes are entrusted in a village, one must stay within six nights and keep them within reach, ensuring they do not become lost, taken, burned, or otherwise separated.
