剃髮儀式（即出家落髮儀）刪訂本
弘一律師編定
剃髮儀式一卷，宋靈芝律師宗《行事鈔》撰述。△其中闍梨及引請師開示等文，且舉一例。今人用時，宜觀機而酌定之，應令行者了解其義。若依文謹誦，茫然莫解，則徒勞無益矣。△又原定儀式，與現時叢林習慣有礙者，亦略改之。於彼原文，亦稍刪潤。匪敢擅竄古本，亦欲今人能依此實行廣為流通，無所阻滯耳。

The Hair-Shaving Ceremony was compiled by the Venerable Master Hongyi of the Republican era, based on the Vinaya scriptures. This ritual was established during the Republican period to standardize the religious procedures for monastic ordination. The text details the steps of shaving the hair, donning the monastic robe, receiving the precepts, and includes recitations of sutras, verses, mantras, as well as dialogues between master and disciple, embodying the resolve to renounce worldly life. This ceremony upholds the tradition of Indian Buddhist Vinaya while integrating Chinese Buddhist practices, serving as an important model for modern ordination systems. It provides authoritative guidance for transmitting monastic discipline and is a key document for the study of contemporary Buddhist rituals.
