“It rains on what’s concealed, Not on what’s revealed. Therefore, reveal the concealed, And it won’t be rained upon.” 4. One deserving to hear the Monastic Code The Buddha addressed the monks: “From now on, monks, I won’t be doing the observance-day ceremony or recite the Monastic Code. You should do it instead. It’s impossible for the Buddha to do the observance-day ceremony and recite the Monastic Code in an impure gathering. And, monks, you shouldn’t listen to the Monastic Code if you have an unconfessed offense.
