A rule devised to meet specific or local conditions. Tibetan monasteries are governed by a “constitution” (bca’ yig), which is a document that compiles the “rules” (Tib. bca’ khrims) specific to that monastery.

The “rules adopted” at a monastic site are unique regulations devised to meet specific or local conditions. Yijing renders this term as both 立制 (Taishō 1445) and 所有制法 (Taishō 1446).
