開遮 (1)開 refers to approval of activities, while 遮 refers to prohibition. Approval and disapproval in terms of moral discipline. (2) (Lit. `opening and closing') To break the rules when the situation calls for it. (For example, one lies to a hunter when he asks which way the deer went, because it is better in this case to lie then to contribute to the killing of an animal).
