經詩內容

These training rules are observed by novice monks and nuns. They are derived from the Eight Precepts by splitting the precept concerning entertainments into two parts and by adding one rule prohibiting the handling of money. A fully-ordained monk (bhikkhu) observes the 227 rules of the bhikkhu Patimokkha ; a fully ordained nun (bhikkhuni) would observe the 311 rules of the bhikkhuni Patimokkha .

背景介紹

十戒是上座部佛教傳統中沙彌(初級出家僧侶)和沙彌尼(初級出家尼眾)所持守的修行規則。它們被記錄為巴利三藏中《律藏》《小誦經》的第二篇,每條戒都伴隨「我持守禁欲戒」的話語而受持。 這些戒律發源自在家信徒在布薩日(齋戒日)所遵守的八關齋戒。娛樂相關的戒條被分為兩條,使得第七戒和第八戒成為獨立的規則,第七戒禁止跳舞、歌唱、音樂和觀看演藝表演,第八戒禁止佩戴花鬘、香水和化妝品。此外還增加了第十戒,禁止接受金銀。一位具足戒的比丘守持具足戒比丘的二百二十七條戒律,一位具足戒的比丘尼守持具足戒比丘尼的三百十一條戒律。十戒是先於這些更嚴格的戒律體系而存在的較為簡單的修行紀律。

您知道嗎?

十戒的定位

這十條戒律是佛教出家眾(沙彌、沙彌尼)的基礎戒條,由在家居士受持的「八關齋戒」擴展而來——將其中關於娛樂的戒條一分為二,並新增「不持金銀」一條,形成完整的十戒。

戒律的層級

十戒之上,正式受具足戒的比丘需守 227 條戒(巴利律藏),比丘尼則多達 311 條。十戒可視為通往更嚴格戒律的入門階梯,體現佛教循序漸進的修行設計。

巴利文原文的意義

每條戒律皆以巴利文(古印度佛教經典語言)誦出,格式統一為「我受持學習規則,以避免……」。這種重複的誓願形式,強調戒律是自願承擔的修行承諾,而非外在強制。

第六戒的「過午不食」

禁止在正午後進食,是印度出家眾的傳統苦行之一。此戒不僅訓練對欲望的克制,也與禪修時保持清明、減少昏沉有關,至今仍為南傳佛教僧侶嚴格遵守。

第十戒的深意

「不持金銀」看似僅是財務規範,實則直指修行核心——徹底斷絕對物質的執著與安全感依賴。此戒迫使僧侶完全依賴信眾供養,培養謙卑與對無常的體悟。

戒律的現代迴響

這十條戒律雖源自兩千五百年前的印度,但其精神——不殺生、不偷盜、不妄語、節制感官享樂——在今日的環保倫理、正念飲食與簡樸生活運動中,仍能看見清晰的呼應。
