What should I do next?” They told the Buddha. “Well then, the Sangha should give the monk Udāyī the trial period of six days for one offense of intentional emission of semen, concealed for one day.

The monk Udāyī should approach the Sangha, arrange his upper robe over one shoulder, pay respect at the feet of the senior monks, squat on his heels, raise his joined palms, ‘Venerables, I had committed one offense of intentional emission of semen, concealed for one day.

The monks heard the complaints of that poor tailor. They told the Buddha, who then gave a teaching and addressed the monks: “You should put a monk in charge of the building work. He should make an effort to complete the dwelling as quickly as possible and should repair what’s broken or damaged. And he should be put in charge like this. First a monk should be asked, and then a competent and capable monk should inform the Sangha: ‘Please, venerables, I ask the Sangha to listen.

“It’s good that we escaped. Had we been caught, we would’ve been executed, too.” The monks asked, “But what have you done?” They told the monks what had happened, and the monks told the Buddha. “Those monks were perfected ones.

Any monk who approves of giving him the trial period of six days should remain silent. Any monk who doesn’t approve should speak up. For the second time, I speak on this matter. … For the third time, I speak on this matter. … The Sangha has given the monk Udāyī the trial period of six days for one offense of intentional emission of semen, concealed for one day. The Sangha approves and is therefore silent. I’ll remember it thus.’” Rehabilitation for those with offenses concealed for one day When he had completed that trial period, he told the monks,

If the Sangha is ready, it should put monk so-and-so in charge of the building work relating to the dwelling of householder so-and-so. This is the motion.

This is the proper conduct: Meals and almsround Having gotten up at the appropriate time, the pupil should remove his sandals, and arrange his upper robe over one shoulder. He should then give his teacher a tooth cleaner and water for rinsing the mouth, and he should prepare a seat for him. If there’s congee, he should rinse a vessel and bring the congee to his teacher. When he has drunk the congee, the pupil should give him water and receive the vessel. Holding it low, he should wash it carefully without scratching it and then put it away. When the teacher has gotten up, the pupil should put away the seat. If the place is dirty, he should sweep it.

Have sexual intercourse, Accept gold, silver, or money, And make a living Through wrong livelihood. These are called defilements by the Buddha, The Kinsman of the Sun. Those monastics and brahmins Who are defiled by these Do not shine and radiate; They are impure, dirty, and low.

The king’s men came out from Sāvatthī. They caught some of the criminals, while others escaped. Those who escaped went forth with the monks, but those who were caught were taken away for execution. Those who had gone forth saw the others being taken away for execution. They said, “It’s good that we escaped. Had we been caught, we would’ve been executed, too.” The monks asked, “But what have you done?” They told the monks what had happened, and the monks told the Buddha. “One who has raped a nun shouldn’t be given the full ordination. If it has been given, he should be expelled.

“You shouldn’t eat horse meat. If you do, you commit an offense of wrong conduct.” At one time when there was a shortage of food, people ate dog meat.

Dogs are disgusting and repulsive.” They told the Buddha. “You shouldn’t eat dog meat. If you do, you commit an offense of wrong conduct.” At one time when there was a shortage of food, people ate snake meat. They also gave snake meat to monks who were walking for alms.

“I had committed one offense of intentional emission of semen, concealed for one day. I asked the Sangha to give me probation for one day for that offense, When I had completed that probation, I asked the Sangha to give me the trial period of six days, I’ve now completed it. What should I do next?” They told the Buddha. “Well then, the Sangha should rehabilitate the monk Udāyī. And it should be done like this.

On that occasion the monks who were the pupils of the monks from the group of six went ahead of the Sangha headed by the Buddha. They then took possession of dwellings and beds, thinking, “This will be for our preceptors and teachers, and also for ourselves.” Following behind the Sangha, Venerable Sāriputta was unable to get a bed—the dwellings and beds having all been taken. And so he sat down at the foot of a tree. Getting up early in the morning, the Buddha cleared his throat. Sāriputta, too, cleared his throat. “Who’s there?” “It’s me, sir, Sāriputta.” “Why are you sitting here?” Sāriputta told the Buddha what had happened. Soon afterwards the Buddha had the Sangha gathered and questioned the monks:

If the teacher wants to enter the village, the pupil should give him a sarong and receive the one he’s wearing in return. He should give him a belt. He should put the upper robes together, overlapping each other edge-to-edge, and then give them to him. He should rinse his teacher’s bowl and give it to him while wet.

He shouldn’t walk too far behind his teacher or too close to him. He should receive the contents of his bowl. He shouldn’t interrupt his teacher when he’s speaking. But if the teacher’s speech is bordering on an offense, he should stop him. When returning, the pupil should go first to prepare a seat and to set out a foot stool, a foot scraper, and water for washing the feet. He should go out to meet the teacher and receive his bowl and robe. He should give him a sarong and receive the one he’s wearing in return. If the robe is damp, he should sun it for a short while, but shouldn’t leave it in the heat. He should fold the robe, offsetting the edges by seven centimeters, so that the fold doesn’t become worn.

He had sex and made others have it. They told the Buddha. “A hermaphrodite shouldn’t be given the full ordination. If it has been given, he should be expelled.” 55. Those without a preceptor, etc. On one occasion the monks gave the full ordination to someone without a preceptor. They told the Buddha.

He should place the belt in the fold. If there’s almsfood and his teacher wants to eat, the pupil should give him water and then the almsfood. He should ask his teacher if he wants water to drink. When the teacher has eaten, the pupil should give him water and receive his bowl. Holding it low, he should wash it carefully without scratching it. He should then dry it and sun it for a short while, but shouldn’t leave it in the heat. The pupil should put away the robe and bowl. When putting away the bowl, he should hold the bowl in one hand, feel under the bed or the bench with the other, and then put it away. He shouldn’t put the bowl away on the bare floor. When putting away the robe, he should hold the robe in one hand, wipe the bamboo robe rack or the clothesline with the other, and then put it away by folding the robe over it, making the ends face the wall and the fold face out. When the teacher has gotten up, the pupil should put away the seat and also the foot stool, the foot scraper, and the water for washing the feet. If the place is dirty, he should sweep it.”

gold, silver, and money aren’t allowable for the Sakyan monastics. They neither accept nor receive gold, silver, or money. The Sakyan monastics have given up gems and gold, and live without gold, silver, and money.’ And he was able to persuade that gathering. Soon afterwards Maṇicūlaka went to the Buddha, bowed, sat down, and told him what had happened, adding, ‘Sir, have I explained in accordance with the Teaching so that I can’t be legitimately criticized or censured?’ ‘You certainly have, for gold, silver, and money aren’t allowable for the Sakyan monastics.

“If the teacher wants to bathe, the pupil should prepare a bath. If he wants a cold bath, he should prepare that; if he wants a hot bath, he should prepare that. If the teacher wants to take a sauna, the pupil should knead bath powder, moisten the clay, take a sauna bench, and follow behind his teacher. After giving his teacher the sauna bench, receiving his robe, and putting it aside, he should give him the bath powder and the clay. If he’s able, he should enter the sauna. When entering the sauna, he should smear his face with clay, cover himself front and back, and then enter. He shouldn’t sit encroaching on the senior monks, or block the junior monks from getting a seat. While in the sauna, he should provide assistance to his teacher. When leaving the sauna, he should take the sauna bench, cover himself front and back, and then leave.

“You shouldn’t eat tiger meat, leopard meat, bear meat, or hyena meat. If you do, you commit an offense of wrong conduct.” The second section for recitation on Suppiyā is finished. 11.

On this occasion the country people had loaded large quantities of salt, oil, rice, and fresh food onto carts, and were following behind the Sangha of monks headed by the Buddha, thinking, “When our turn comes, we’ll prepare a meal.” Five hundred people living on scraps were also following along.

Moreover, I am all alone, and all my household business is being neglected.
