Origin story

First sub-story

At one time when the Buddha was staying in the hall with the peaked roof in the Great Wood near Vesālī, Tena samayena buddho bhagavā vesāliyaṁ viharati mahāvane kūṭāgārasālāyaṁ. a number of monks who were friends had entered the rainy-season residence on the banks of the river Vaggumudā. Tena kho pana samayena sambahulā sandiṭṭhā sambhattā bhikkhū vaggumudāya nadiyā tīre vassaṁ upagacchiṁsu. At that time Vajjī was short of food and afflicted with hunger, with crops affected by whiteheads and turned to straw. Tena kho pana samayena vajjī dubbhikkhā hoti dvīhitikā setaṭṭhikā salākāvuttā, It was not easy to get by on almsfood. na sukarā uñchena paggahena yāpetuṁ.

The monks considered the difficult circumstances, and they thought, Atha kho tesaṁ bhikkhūnaṁ etadahosi—“etarahi kho vajjī dubbhikkhā dvīhitikā setaṭṭhikā salākāvuttā, na sukarā uñchena paggahena yāpetuṁ. “How can we have a comfortable rains, live in peace and harmony, Kena nu kho mayaṁ upāyena samaggā sammodamānā avivadamānā phāsukaṁ vassaṁ vaseyyāma, and get almsfood without trouble?” na ca piṇḍakena kilameyyāmā”ti?

Some said, Ekacce evamāhaṁsu—“We could work for the householders, “handa mayaṁ, āvuso, gihīnaṁ kammantaṁ adhiṭṭhema, and they’ll support us in return.” evaṁ te amhākaṁ dātuṁ maññissanti. Evaṁ mayaṁ samaggā sammodamānā avivadamānā phāsukaṁ vassaṁ vasissāma, na ca piṇḍakena kilamissāmā”ti.

Others said, Ekacce evamāhaṁsu—“There’s no need to work for the householders. “alaṁ, āvuso, kiṁ gihīnaṁ kammantaṁ adhiṭṭhitena. Let’s instead take messages for them, Handa mayaṁ, āvuso, gihīnaṁ dūteyyaṁ harāma, and they’ll support us in return.” evaṁ te amhākaṁ dātuṁ maññissanti. Evaṁ mayaṁ samaggā sammodamānā avivadamānā phāsukaṁ vassaṁ vasissāma, na ca piṇḍakena kilamissāmā”ti.

Still others said, Ekacce evamāhaṁsu—“There’s no need to work or take messages for them. “alaṁ, āvuso, kiṁ gihīnaṁ kammantaṁ adhiṭṭhitena. Kiṁ gihīnaṁ dūteyyaṁ haṭena. Let’s instead talk up one another’s superhuman qualities to the householders: Handa mayaṁ, āvuso, gihīnaṁ aññamaññassa uttarimanussadhammassa vaṇṇaṁ bhāsissāma—‘That monk has the first absorption, ‘asuko bhikkhu paṭhamassa jhānassa lābhī, that monk the second absorption, asuko bhikkhu dutiyassa jhānassa lābhī, that monk the third, asuko bhikkhu tatiyassa jhānassa lābhī, that monk the fourth; asuko bhikkhu catutthassa jhānassa lābhī, that monk is a stream-enterer, asuko bhikkhu sotāpanno, that monk a once-returner, asuko bhikkhu sakadāgāmī, that a non-returner, asuko bhikkhu anāgāmī, that a perfected one; asuko bhikkhu arahā, that monk has the three true insights, asuko bhikkhu tevijjo, and that the six direct knowledges.’ asuko bhikkhu chaḷabhiñño’ti. Then they’ll support us. Evaṁ te amhākaṁ dātuṁ maññissanti. In this way we’ll have a comfortable rains, live together in peace and harmony, Evaṁ mayaṁ samaggā sammodamānā avivadamānā phāsukaṁ vassaṁ vasissāma, and get almsfood without trouble. na ca piṇḍakena kilamissāmā”ti. This is the way to go.” “Esoyeva kho, āvuso, seyyo yo amhākaṁ gihīnaṁ aññamaññassa uttarimanussadhammassa vaṇṇo bhāsito”ti.

Then those monks did just that. Atha kho te bhikkhū gihīnaṁ aññamaññassa uttarimanussadhammassa vaṇṇaṁ bhāsiṁsu—“asuko bhikkhu paṭhamassa jhānassa lābhī …pe… asuko bhikkhu chaḷabhiñño”ti. And the people there thought, Atha kho te manussā—“We’re so fortunate that such monks have come to us for the rainy-season residence. “lābhā vata no, suladdhaṁ vata no, yesaṁ no evarūpā bhikkhū vassaṁ upagatā; Such virtuous and good monks have never before entered the rains residence with us.” na vata no ito pubbe evarūpā bhikkhū vassaṁ upagatā yathayime bhikkhū sīlavanto kalyāṇadhammā”ti, And they gave such food and drink to those monks that they did not even eat and drink themselves, or give to their parents, to their wives and children, to their slaves, servants, and workers, to their friends and companions, or to their relatives. te na tādisāni bhojanāni attanā paribhuñjanti mātāpitūnaṁ denti puttadārassa denti dāsakammakaraporisassa denti mittāmaccānaṁ denti ñātisālohitānaṁ denti, yādisāni bhikkhūnaṁ denti. Te na tādisāni khādanīyāni sāyanīyāni pānāni attanā khādanti sāyanti pivanti mātāpitūnaṁ denti puttadārassa denti dāsakammakaraporisassa denti mittāmaccānaṁ denti ñātisālohitānaṁ denti, yādisāni bhikkhūnaṁ denti. Soon those monks had a good color, bright faces, clear skin, and sharp senses. Atha kho te bhikkhū vaṇṇavā ahesuṁ pīṇindriyā pasannamukhavaṇṇā vippasannachavivaṇṇā.

Now it was the custom for monks who had completed the rainy-season residence to go and visit the Buddha. Āciṇṇaṁ kho panetaṁ vassaṁvuṭṭhānaṁ bhikkhūnaṁ bhagavantaṁ dassanāya upasaṅkamituṁ. And so, when the three months were over and they had completed the rains residence, those monks put their dwellings in order, took their bowls and robes, and set out for Vesālī. Atha kho te bhikkhū vassaṁvuṭṭhā temāsaccayena senāsanaṁ saṁsāmetvā pattacīvaraṁ ādāya yena vesālī tena pakkamiṁsu. When they eventually arrived, they went to the hall with the peaked roof in the Great Wood. There they approached the Buddha, bowed, and sat down. Anupubbena yena vesālī mahāvanaṁ kūṭāgārasālā yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkamiṁsu; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṁ abhivādetvā ekamantaṁ nisīdiṁsu.

At that time the monks who had completed the rains residence in that region were thin, haggard, and pale, with veins protruding all over their bodies. Tena kho pana samayena disāsu vassaṁvuṭṭhā bhikkhū kisā honti lūkhā dubbaṇṇā uppaṇḍuppaṇḍukajātā dhamanisanthatagattā; Yet the monks from the banks of the Vaggumudā had a good color, bright faces, clear skin, and sharp senses. vaggumudātīriyā pana bhikkhū vaṇṇavā honti pīṇindriyā pasannamukhavaṇṇā vippasannachavivaṇṇā. Since it is the custom for Buddhas to greet newly-arrived monks, Āciṇṇaṁ kho panetaṁ buddhānaṁ bhagavantānaṁ āgantukehi bhikkhūhi saddhiṁ paṭisammodituṁ. the Buddha said to them, Atha kho bhagavā vaggumudātīriye bhikkhū etadavoca—“I hope you’re keeping well, monks, I hope you’re getting by? “kacci, bhikkhave, khamanīyaṁ kacci yāpanīyaṁ

I hope you had a comfortable and harmonious rains, and got almsfood without trouble?” kacci samaggā sammodamānā avivadamānā phāsukaṁ vassaṁ vasittha, na ca piṇḍakena kilamitthā”ti?

“We’re keeping well, sir, we’re getting by. “Khamanīyaṁ, bhagavā, yāpanīyaṁ, bhagavā. We had a comfortable and harmonious rains, and got almsfood without trouble.” Samaggā ca mayaṁ, bhante, sammodamānā avivadamānā phāsukaṁ vassaṁ vasimhā, na ca piṇḍakena kilamimhā”ti. When Buddhas know what is going on, sometimes they ask and sometimes not. They know the right time to ask and when not to ask. Buddhas ask when it is beneficial, otherwise they do not, for Buddhas are incapable of doing what is unbeneficial. Jānantāpi tathāgatā pucchanti, jānantāpi na pucchanti …pe… Buddhas question the monks for two reasons: to give a teaching or to lay down a training rule. dvīhākārehi buddhā bhagavanto bhikkhū paṭipucchanti— “dhammaṁ vā desessāma, sāvakānaṁ vā sikkhāpadaṁ paññapessāmā”ti.

And the Buddha said to those monks, Atha kho bhagavā vaggumudātīriye bhikkhū etadavoca—“In what way, monks, did you have a comfortable and harmonious rains? And how did you get almsfood without trouble?” “yathā kathaṁ pana tumhe, bhikkhave, samaggā sammodamānā avivadamānā phāsukaṁ vassaṁ vasittha na ca piṇḍakena kilamitthā”ti?

They then told him. Atha kho te bhikkhū bhagavato etamatthaṁ ārocesuṁ.

“But did you really have those superhuman qualities?” “Kacci pana vo, bhikkhave, bhūtan”ti?

“No, sir.” “Abhūtaṁ, bhagavā”ti.

The Buddha rebuked them, Vigarahi buddho bhagavā—“It’s not suitable, foolish men, it’s not proper, it’s not worthy of a monastic, it’s not allowable, it’s not to be done. “ananucchavikaṁ, moghapurisā, ananulomikaṁ appatirūpaṁ assāmaṇakaṁ akappiyaṁ akaraṇīyaṁ. How could you for the sake of your stomachs talk up one another’s superhuman qualities to householders? Kathañhi nāma tumhe, moghapurisā, udarassa kāraṇā gihīnaṁ aññamaññassa uttarimanussadhammassa vaṇṇaṁ bhāsissatha. It would be better for your bellies to be cut open with a sharp butcher’s knife than for you to talk up one another’s superhuman qualities to householders. Varaṁ tumhehi, moghapurisā, tiṇhena govikantanena kucchi parikanto, na tveva udarassa kāraṇā gihīnaṁ aññamaññassa uttarimanussadhammassa vaṇṇo bhāsito. Why is that? Taṁ kissa hetu? For although it might cause death or death-like suffering, Tatonidānañhi, moghapurisā, maraṇaṁ vā nigaccheyya maraṇamattaṁ vā dukkhaṁ, it would not cause you to be reborn in a bad destination. na tveva tappaccayā kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā apāyaṁ duggatiṁ vinipātaṁ nirayaṁ upapajjeyya. But <em>this</em> might. Itonidānañca kho, moghapurisā, kāyassa bhedā paraṁ maraṇā apāyaṁ duggatiṁ vinipātaṁ nirayaṁ upapajjeyya. This will affect people’s confidence …” Netaṁ, moghapurisā, appasannānaṁ vā pasādāya …pe… After rebuking them and giving a teaching, he addressed the monks: vigarahitvā dhammiṁ kathaṁ katvā bhikkhū āmantesi—

“Monks, there are these five notorious gangsters to be found in the world. “Pañcime, bhikkhave, mahācorā santo saṁvijjamānā lokasmiṁ. What five? Katame pañca? There is the notorious gangster who thinks like this: Idha, bhikkhave, ekaccassa mahācorassa evaṁ hoti—‘When the heck will I walk about in villages, towns, and royal capitals, with a following of a hundred or a thousand men, ‘kudāssu nāmāhaṁ satena vā sahassena vā parivuto gāmanigamarājadhānīsu āhiṇḍissāmi killing, destroying, and torturing?’ hananto ghātento chindanto chedāpento pacanto pācento’ti. Then after some time, he does just that. So aparena samayena satena vā sahassena vā parivuto gāmanigamarājadhānīsu āhiṇḍati hananto ghātento chindanto chedāpento pacanto pācento. Just so, monks, a bad monk thinks like this: Evameva kho, bhikkhave, idhekaccassa pāpabhikkhuno evaṁ hoti—‘When the heck will I walk about in villages, towns, and royal capitals, with a following of a hundred or a thousand people, ‘kudāssu nāmāhaṁ satena vā sahassena vā parivuto gāmanigamarājadhānīsu cārikaṁ carissāmi being honored, respected, and revered by both lay people and those gone forth, getting robes, almsfood, dwellings, and medicinal supplies?’ sakkato garukato mānito pūjito apacito gahaṭṭhānañceva pabbajitānañca, lābhī cīvarapiṇḍapātasenāsanagilānappaccayabhesajjaparikkhārānan’ti. Then after some time, he does just that. So aparena samayena satena vā sahassena vā parivuto gāmanigamarājadhānīsu cārikaṁ carati sakkato garukato mānito pūjito apacito gahaṭṭhānañceva pabbajitānañca, lābhī cīvarapiṇḍapātasenāsanagilānappaccayabhesajjaparikkhārānaṁ. This is the first notorious gangster to be found in the world. Ayaṁ, bhikkhave, paṭhamo mahācoro santo saṁvijjamāno lokasmiṁ.

Or a bad monk learns the spiritual path proclaimed by the Buddha and takes it as his own. Puna caparaṁ, bhikkhave, idhekacco pāpabhikkhu tathāgatappaveditaṁ dhammavinayaṁ pariyāpuṇitvā attano dahati. This is the second notorious gangster to be found in the world. Ayaṁ, bhikkhave, dutiyo mahācoro santo saṁvijjamāno lokasmiṁ.

Or a bad monk groundlessly charges someone living a pure spiritual life with a sexual offense. Puna caparaṁ, bhikkhave, idhekacco pāpabhikkhu suddhaṁ brahmacāriṁ parisuddhaṁ brahmacariyaṁ carantaṁ amūlakena abrahmacariyena anuddhaṁseti. This is the third notorious gangster to be found in the world. Ayaṁ, bhikkhave, tatiyo mahācoro santo saṁvijjamāno lokasmiṁ.

Or a bad monk takes valuable goods and requisites from the Sangha—Puna caparaṁ, bhikkhave, idhekacco pāpabhikkhu yāni tāni saṅghassa garubhaṇḍāni garuparikkhārāni, seyyathidaṁ—a monastery, the land of a monastery, a dwelling, the site of a dwelling, a bed, a bench, a mattress, a pillow, a metal pot, a metal jar, a metal bucket, a metal bowl, a machete, a hatchet, an ax, a spade, a chisel, a creeper, bamboo, a reed, grass, clay, wooden goods, earthenware goods—ārāmo ārāmavatthu vihāro vihāravatthu mañco pīṭhaṁ bhisi bibbohanaṁ lohakumbhī lohabhāṇakaṁ lohavārako lohakaṭāhaṁ vāsi parasu kuṭhārī kudālo nikhādanaṁ valli veḷu muñjaṁ pabbajaṁ tiṇaṁ mattikā dārubhaṇḍaṁ mattikābhaṇḍaṁ, and uses them to bribe and create a following among householders. tehi gihiṁ saṅgaṇhāti upalāpeti. This is the fourth notorious gangster to be found in the world. Ayaṁ, bhikkhave, catuttho mahācoro santo saṁvijjamāno lokasmiṁ.

But in this world with its gods, lords of death, and supreme beings, in this society with its monastics and brahmins, its gods and humans, this is the most notorious gangster of all: one who claims to have a non-existent superhuman quality. Sadevake, bhikkhave, loke samārake sabrahmake sassamaṇabrāhmaṇiyā pajāya sadevamanussāya ayaṁ aggo mahācoro yo asantaṁ abhūtaṁ uttarimanussadhammaṁ ullapati. Why is that? Taṁ kissa hetu? Monks, you’ve eaten the country’s almsfood by theft.” Theyyāya vo, bhikkhave, raṭṭhapiṇḍo bhutto”ti.

“Whoever should declare himself Aññathā santamattānaṁ, To be other than he truly is, aññathā yo pavedaye; Has eaten this by theft, Nikacca kitavasseva, Like a cheater who has deceived. bhuttaṁ theyyena tassa taṁ.
Many ocher-necks of bad qualities, Kāsāvakaṇṭhā bahavo, Uncontrolled and wicked—pāpadhammā asaññatā; By their wicked deeds, Pāpā pāpehi kammehi, They are reborn in hell. nirayaṁ te upapajjare.
It’s better to eat an iron ball, Seyyo ayoguḷo bhutto, As hot as a licking flame, tatto aggisikhūpamo; Than for the immoral and uncontrolled Yañce bhuñjeyya dussīlo, To eat the country’s alms.” raṭṭhapiṇḍaṁ asaññatoti.

After rebuking the monks from the banks of the Vaggumudā in many ways for being difficult to maintain, difficult to support … Atha kho bhagavā vaggumudātīriye bhikkhū anekapariyāyena vigarahitvā dubbharatāya dupposatāya …pe… “And, monks, this training rule should be recited like this: evañca pana, bhikkhave, imaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ uddiseyyātha—

Preliminary ruling

‘If a monk falsely claims for himself a superhuman quality, a knowledge and vision worthy of the noble ones, saying, “This I know, this I see,” “Yo pana bhikkhu anabhijānaṁ uttarimanussadhammaṁ attupanāyikaṁ alamariyañāṇadassanaṁ samudācareyya—‘iti jānāmi iti passāmī’ti, but after some time—whether questioned or not, but having committed the offense and seeking purification—should say: “Not knowing I said that I know, not seeing that I see; what I said was empty and false,” tato aparena samayena samanuggāhīyamāno vā asamanuggāhīyamāno vā āpanno visuddhāpekkho evaṁ vadeyya—‘ajānamevaṁ, āvuso, avacaṁ jānāmi, apassaṁ passāmi. Tucchaṁ musā vilapin’ti, he too is expelled and excluded from the community.’” ayampi pārājiko hoti asaṁvāso”ti.

In this way the Buddha laid down this training rule for the monks. Evañcidaṁ bhagavatā bhikkhūnaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ paññattaṁ hoti.

Second sub-story

Soon afterwards a number of monks, thinking they had seen and realized what in fact they had not, declared final knowledge because of overestimation. Tena kho pana samayena sambahulā bhikkhū adiṭṭhe diṭṭhasaññino apatte pattasaññino anadhigate adhigatasaññino asacchikate sacchikatasaññino adhimānena aññaṁ byākariṁsu. After some time, their minds inclined to sensual desire, ill will, and confusion. Tesaṁ aparena samayena rāgāyapi cittaṁ namati dosāyapi cittaṁ namati mohāyapi cittaṁ namati. They became anxious, thinking, Tesaṁ kukkuccaṁ ahosi—“The Buddha has laid down a training rule, “bhagavatā sikkhāpadaṁ paññattaṁ. yet we declared final knowledge because of overestimation. Mayañcamha adiṭṭhe diṭṭhasaññino apatte pattasaññino anadhigate adhigatasaññino asacchikate sacchikatasaññino, adhimānena aññaṁ byākarimhā. Could it be that we’ve committed an offense entailing expulsion?” Kacci nu kho mayaṁ pārājikaṁ āpattiṁ āpannā”ti? They told Venerable Ānanda, Te āyasmato ānandassa etamatthaṁ ārocesuṁ. who told the Buddha. Āyasmā ānando bhagavato etamatthaṁ ārocesi. He said, “This is negligible, Ānanda. “Honti ye te, ānanda, bhikkhū adiṭṭhe diṭṭhasaññino apatte pattasaññino anadhigate adhigatasaññino asacchikate sacchikatasaññino adhimānena aññaṁ byākaronti. Tañca kho etaṁ abbohārikan”ti.

And so, monks, this training rule should be recited like this: “Evañca pana, bhikkhave, imaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ uddiseyyātha—

Final ruling

‘If a monk falsely claims for himself a superhuman quality, a knowledge and vision worthy of the noble ones, saying, “This I know, this I see,” “Yo pana bhikkhu anabhijānaṁ uttarimanussadhammaṁ attupanāyikaṁ alamariyañāṇadassanaṁ samudācareyya—‘iti jānāmi iti passāmī’ti, but after some time—whether he is questioned or not, but having committed the offense and seeking purification—should say: “Not knowing I said that I know, not seeing that I see; what I said was empty and false,” then, tato aparena samayena samanuggāhīyamāno vā asamanuggāhīyamāno vā āpanno visuddhāpekkho evaṁ vadeyya—‘ajānamevaṁ, āvuso, avacaṁ jānāmi, apassaṁ passāmi. Tucchaṁ musā vilapin’ti, except if it is due to overestimation, aññatra adhimānā, he too is expelled and excluded from the community.’” ayampi pārājiko hoti asaṁvāso”ti.

A superhuman quality: Uttarimanussadhammo nāma: absorption, release, stillness, attainment, knowledge and vision, development of the path, realization of the fruits, abandoning the defilements, a mind without hindrances, delighting in solitude. jhānaṁ vimokkho samādhi samāpatti ñāṇadassanaṁ maggabhāvanā phalasacchikiriyā kilesappahānaṁ vinīvaraṇatā cittassa suññāgāre abhirati.

Knowledge: Ñāṇanti: the three true insights. tisso vijjā.
Vision: Dassananti: knowledge and vision are equivalent. yaṁ ñāṇaṁ taṁ dassanaṁ, yaṁ dassanaṁ taṁ ñāṇaṁ.
Claims: Samudācareyyāti: announces to a woman or a man, to a lay person or one gone forth. āroceyya itthiyā vā purisassa vā gahaṭṭhassa vā pabbajitassa vā.
This I know, this I see: Iti jānāmi iti passāmīti: “I know these qualities,” “I see these qualities,” “These qualities are found in me and I conform to them.” jānāmahaṁ ete dhamme, passāmahaṁ ete dhamme atthi ca ete dhammā mayi, ahañca etesu dhammesu sandissāmīti.

Not: Asamanuggāhīyamānoti: he is not spoken to by anyone. na kenaci vuccamāno.
Having committed the offense: Āpannoti: having bad desires, overcome by desire, claiming to have a non-existent superhuman quality, he has committed an offense entailing expulsion. pāpiccho icchāpakato asantaṁ abhūtaṁ uttarimanussadhammaṁ ullapitvā pārājikaṁ āpattiṁ āpanno hoti.
Seeking purification: Visuddhāpekkhoti: he desires to be a householder, a lay follower, a monastery worker, or a novice monk. gihī vā hotukāmo upāsako vā hotukāmo ārāmiko vā hotukāmo sāmaṇero vā hotukāmo.
Not knowing I said that I know, not seeing that I see: Ajānamevaṁ, āvuso, avacaṁ—jānāmi, apassaṁ passāmīti: “I don’t know these qualities,” “I don’t see these qualities,” “These qualities aren’t found in me and I don’t conform to them.” nāhaṁ ete dhamme jānāmi, nāhaṁ ete dhamme passāmi, natthi ca ete dhammā mayi, na cāhaṁ etesu dhammesu sandissāmīti.
What I said was empty and false: Tucchaṁ musā vilapinti: “What I said was empty,” “What I said was false,” “What I said was unreal,” “I said it without knowing.” tucchakaṁ mayā bhaṇitaṁ, musā mayā bhaṇitaṁ, abhūtaṁ mayā bhaṇitaṁ, ajānantena mayā bhaṇitaṁ.
Except if it is due to overestimation: Aññatra adhimānāti: unless it is due to overestimation. ṭhapetvā adhimānaṁ.
He too: Ayampīti: this is said with reference to the preceding offenses entailing expulsion. purime upādāya vuccati.
Is expelled: Pārājiko hotīti: just as a palm tree with its crown cut off is incapable of further growth, seyyathāpi nāma tālo matthakacchinno abhabbo puna virūḷhiyā; so too is a monk with bad desires, overcome by desire, who claims to have a non-existent superhuman quality not an ascetic, not a Sakyan monastic. evameva bhikkhu pāpiccho icchāpakato asantaṁ abhūtaṁ uttarimanussadhammaṁ ullapitvā assamaṇo hoti asakyaputtiyo. Therefore it is said, “he is expelled.” Tena vuccati— “pārājiko hotī”ti.
Excluded from the community: Asaṁvāsoti: Community: joint legal procedures, a joint recitation, the same training—this is called “community”. saṁvāso nāma ekakammaṁ ekuddeso samasikkhatā— eso saṁvāso nāma. He does not take part in this—therefore it is called “excluded from the community”. So tena saddhiṁ natthi. Tena vuccati— “asaṁvāso”ti.

Case studies, part 2

At one time when the Buddha was staying at Rājagaha in the Bamboo Grove, the squirrel sanctuary, Tena samayena buddho bhagavā rājagahe viharati veḷuvane kalandakanivāpe. Venerable Lakkhaṇa and Venerable Mahāmoggallāna were staying on the Vulture Peak. Tena kho pana samayena āyasmā ca lakkhaṇo āyasmā ca mahāmoggallāno gijjhakūṭe pabbate viharanti. One morning Mahāmoggallāna robed up, took his bowl and robe, went to Lakkhaṇa, and said, Atha kho āyasmā mahāmoggallāno pubbaṇhasamayaṁ nivāsetvā pattacīvaraṁ ādāya yenāyasmā lakkhaṇo tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā āyasmantaṁ lakkhaṇaṁ etadavoca—“Lakkhaṇa, let’s enter Rājagaha for almsfood.” “āyāmāvuso lakkhaṇa, rājagahaṁ piṇḍāya pavisissāmā”ti.

“Yes.” “Evamāvuso”ti kho āyasmā lakkhaṇo āyasmato mahāmoggallānassa paccassosi.

As they descended from the Vulture Peak, Mahāmoggallāna smiled at a certain place. Atha kho āyasmā mahāmoggallāno gijjhakūṭā pabbatā orohanto aññatarasmiṁ padese sitaṁ pātvākāsi. Lakkhaṇa asked him why, and Māhamoggallāna replied, Atha kho āyasmā lakkhaṇo āyasmantaṁ mahāmoggallānaṁ etadavoca—“ko nu kho, āvuso moggallāna, hetu ko paccayo sitassa pātukammāyā”ti?

“This isn’t the right time to ask. “Akālo kho, āvuso lakkhaṇa, etassa pañhassa. Please ask me in the presence of the Buddha.” Bhagavato maṁ santike etaṁ pañhaṁ pucchā”ti.

Then, when they had eaten their meal and returned from almsround, Lakkhaṇa and Mahāmoggallāna went to the Buddha, Atha kho āyasmā ca lakkhaṇo āyasmā ca mahāmoggallāno rājagahe piṇḍāya caritvā pacchābhattaṁ piṇḍapātapaṭikkantā yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkamiṁsu; bowed, and sat down. upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṁ abhivādetvā ekamantaṁ nisīdiṁsu. And Lakkhaṇa said to Mahāmoggallāna, Ekamantaṁ nisinno kho āyasmā lakkhaṇo āyasmantaṁ mahāmoggallānaṁ etadavoca—

“Earlier on, as we were descending from the Vulture Peak, you smiled at a certain place. “idhāyasmā mahāmoggallāno gijjhakūṭā pabbatā orohanto aññatarasmiṁ padese sitaṁ pātvākāsi. Why was that?” Ko nu kho, āvuso moggallāna, hetu ko paccayo sitassa pātukammāyā”ti?

“As I was coming down from the Vulture Peak, I saw a skeleton flying through the air. “Idhāhaṁ, āvuso, gijjhakūṭā pabbatā orohanto addasaṁ aṭṭhikasaṅkhalikaṁ vehāsaṁ gacchantiṁ. Vultures, crows, and hawks were pursuing it, striking it between the ribs, Tamenaṁ gijjhāpi kākāpi kulalāpi anupatitvā anupatitvā phāsuḷantarikāhi vituḍenti. while it uttered cries of distress. Sā sudaṁ aṭṭassaraṁ karoti. And I thought Tassa mayhaṁ, āvuso, etadahosi—how amazing and astonishing it is that such a being should exist, ‘acchariyaṁ vata bho, abbhutaṁ vata bho, evarūpopi nāma satto bhavissati. such a spirit, Evarūpopi nāma yakkho bhavissati. such a state of existence.” Evarūpopi nāma attabhāvappaṭilābho bhavissatī’”ti.

But the monks complained and criticized him, Bhikkhū ujjhāyanti khiyyanti vipācenti—“He’s claiming a superhuman ability!” “uttarimanussadhammaṁ āyasmā mahāmoggallāno ullapatī”ti.

The Buddha then said to them: Atha kho bhagavā bhikkhū āmantesi—

“There are disciples who have vision “cakkhubhūtā vata, bhikkhave, sāvakā viharanti. and knowledge, Ñāṇabhūtā vata, bhikkhave, sāvakā viharanti. who can know, see, and witness such things.

First sub-story

At one time when the Buddha was staying in the hall with the peaked roof in the Great Wood near Vesālī, a number of monks who were friends had entered the rainy-season residence on the banks of the river Vaggumudā. At that time Vajjī was short of food and afflicted with hunger, with crops affected by whiteheads and turned to straw. It was not easy to get by on almsfood.

The monks considered the difficult circumstances, and they thought, “How can we have a comfortable rains, live in peace and harmony, and get almsfood without trouble?”

Some said, “We could work for the householders, and they’ll support us in return.”

Others said, “There’s no need to work for the householders. Let’s instead take messages for them, and they’ll support us in return.”

Still others said, “There’s no need to work or take messages for them. Let’s instead talk up one another’s superhuman qualities to the householders: ‘That monk has the first absorption, that monk the second absorption, that monk the third, that monk the fourth; that monk is a stream-enterer, that monk a once-returner, that a non-returner, that a perfected one; that monk has the three true insights, and that the six direct knowledges.’ Then they’ll support us. In this way we’ll have a comfortable rains, live together in peace and harmony, and get almsfood without trouble. This is the way to go.”

Then those monks did just that. And the people there thought, “We’re so fortunate that such monks have come to us for the rainy-season residence. Such virtuous and good monks have never before entered the rains residence with us.” And they gave such food and drink to those monks that they did not even eat and drink themselves, or give to their parents, to their wives and children, to their slaves, servants, and workers, to their friends and companions, or to their relatives. Soon those monks had a good color, bright faces, clear skin, and sharp senses.

Now it was the custom for monks who had completed the rainy-season residence to go and visit the Buddha. And so, when the three months were over and they had completed the rains residence, those monks put their dwellings in order, took their bowls and robes, and set out for Vesālī. When they eventually arrived, they went to the hall with the peaked roof in the Great Wood. There they approached the Buddha, bowed, and sat down.

At that time the monks who had completed the rains residence in that region were thin, haggard, and pale, with veins protruding all over their bodies. Yet the monks from the banks of the Vaggumudā had a good color, bright faces, clear skin, and sharp senses. Since it is the custom for Buddhas to greet newly-arrived monks, the Buddha said to them, “I hope you’re keeping well, monks, I hope you’re getting by?

I hope you had a comfortable and harmonious rains, and got almsfood without trouble?”

“We’re keeping well, sir, we’re getting by. We had a comfortable and harmonious rains, and got almsfood without trouble.” When Buddhas know what is going on, sometimes they ask and sometimes not. They know the right time to ask and when not to ask. Buddhas ask when it is beneficial, otherwise they do not, for Buddhas are incapable of doing what is unbeneficial. Buddhas question the monks for two reasons: to give a teaching or to lay down a training rule.

And the Buddha said to those monks, “In what way, monks, did you have a comfortable and harmonious rains? And how did you get almsfood without trouble?”

They then told him.

“But did you really have those superhuman qualities?”

“No, sir.”

The Buddha rebuked them, “It’s not suitable, foolish men, it’s not proper, it’s not worthy of a monastic, it’s not allowable, it’s not to be done. How could you for the sake of your stomachs talk up one another’s superhuman qualities to householders? It would be better for your bellies to be cut open with a sharp butcher’s knife than for you to talk up one another’s superhuman qualities to householders. Why is that? For although it might cause death or death-like suffering, it would not cause you to be reborn in a bad destination. But <em>this</em> might. This will affect people’s confidence …” After rebuking them and giving a teaching, he addressed the monks:

“Monks, there are these five notorious gangsters to be found in the world. What five? There is the notorious gangster who thinks like this: ‘When the heck will I walk about in villages, towns, and royal capitals, with a following of a hundred or a thousand men, killing, destroying, and torturing?’ Then after some time, he does just that. Just so, monks, a bad monk thinks like this: ‘When the heck will I walk about in villages, towns, and royal capitals, with a following of a hundred or a thousand people, being honored, respected, and revered by both lay people and those gone forth, getting robes, almsfood, dwellings, and medicinal supplies?’ Then after some time, he does just that. This is the first notorious gangster to be found in the world.

Or a bad monk learns the spiritual path proclaimed by the Buddha and takes it as his own. This is the second notorious gangster to be found in the world.

Or a bad monk groundlessly charges someone living a pure spiritual life with a sexual offense. This is the third notorious gangster to be found in the world.

Or a bad monk takes valuable goods and requisites from the Sangha—a monastery, the land of a monastery, a dwelling, the site of a dwelling, a bed, a bench, a mattress, a pillow, a metal pot, a metal jar, a metal bucket, a metal bowl, a machete, a hatchet, an ax, a spade, a chisel, a creeper, bamboo, a reed, grass, clay, wooden goods, earthenware goods—and uses them to bribe and create a following among householders. This is the fourth notorious gangster to be found in the world.

“Whoever should declare himself To be other than he truly is, Has eaten this by theft, Like a cheater who has deceived.
Many ocher-necks of bad qualities, Uncontrolled and wicked—By their wicked deeds, They are reborn in hell.
It’s better to eat an iron ball, As hot as a licking flame, Than for the immoral and uncontrolled To eat the country’s alms.”

After rebuking the monks from the banks of the Vaggumudā in many ways for being difficult to maintain, difficult to support … “And, monks, this training rule should be recited like this:

Preliminary ruling

‘If a monk falsely claims for himself a superhuman quality, a knowledge and vision worthy of the noble ones, saying, “This I know, this I see,” but after some time—whether questioned or not, but having committed the offense and seeking purification—should say: “Not knowing I said that I know, not seeing that I see; what I said was empty and false,” he too is expelled and excluded from the community.’”

In this way the Buddha laid down this training rule for the monks.

Second sub-story

Soon afterwards a number of monks, thinking they had seen and realized what in fact they had not, declared final knowledge because of overestimation. After some time, their minds inclined to sensual desire, ill will, and confusion. They became anxious, thinking, “The Buddha has laid down a training rule, yet we declared final knowledge because of overestimation. Could it be that we’ve committed an offense entailing expulsion?” They told Venerable Ānanda, who told the Buddha. He said, “This is negligible, Ānanda.

And so, monks, this training rule should be recited like this:

Final ruling

‘If a monk falsely claims for himself a superhuman quality, a knowledge and vision worthy of the noble ones, saying, “This I know, this I see,” but after some time—whether he is questioned or not, but having committed the offense and seeking purification—should say: “Not knowing I said that I know, not seeing that I see; what I said was empty and false,” then, except if it is due to overestimation, he too is expelled and excluded from the community.’”

A superhuman quality:: absorption, release, stillness, attainment, knowledge and vision, development of the path, realization of the fruits, abandoning the defilements, a mind without hindrances, delighting in solitude.
For himself:: either he presents those good qualities as in himself, or he presents himself as among those good qualities.
Knowledge:: the three true insights.
Vision:: knowledge and vision are equivalent.
Claims:: announces to a woman or a man, to a lay person or one gone forth.
This I know, this I see:: “I know these qualities,” “I see these qualities,” “These qualities are found in me and I conform to them.”
After some time:: the moment, the second, the instant after he has made the claim.
He is questioned:: he is questioned in regard to what he has claimed: “What did you attain?” “How did you attain it?” “When did you attain it?” “Where did you attain it?” “Which defilements did you abandon?” “Which qualities did you gain?”
Not:: he is not spoken to by anyone.
Having committed the offense:: having bad desires, overcome by desire, claiming to have a non-existent superhuman quality, he has committed an offense entailing expulsion.
Seeking purification:: he desires to be a householder, a lay follower, a monastery worker, or a novice monk.
Not knowing I said that I know, not seeing that I see:: “I don’t know these qualities,” “I don’t see these qualities,” “These qualities aren’t found in me and I don’t conform to them.”
What I said was empty and false:: “What I said was empty,” “What I said was false,” “What I said was unreal,” “I said it without knowing.”
Except if it is due to overestimation:: unless it is due to overestimation.
He too:: this is said with reference to the preceding offenses entailing expulsion.
Is expelled:: just as a palm tree with its crown cut off is incapable of further growth, so too is a monk with bad desires, overcome by desire, who claims to have a non-existent superhuman quality not an ascetic, not a Sakyan monastic. Therefore it is said, “he is expelled.”
Excluded from the community:: Community: joint legal procedures, a joint recitation, the same training—this is called “community”. He does not take part in this—therefore it is called “excluded from the community”.

Summary verses of case studies

“About overestimation, in the wilderness, Almsfood, preceptor, behavior; Fetters, qualities while in solitude, Dwelling, supported.
Not difficult, and then energy, fear of death, Remorseful friend, rightly; To be reached by energy, to be reached by exertion, Then two on the enduring of feeling.
Five cases of a brahmin, Three on declaring final knowledge; Home, rejected worldly pleasures, And delight, set out.
Bone, and lump—both are cattle butchers; A morsel is a poultry butcher, a sheep butcher is flayed; And a pig butcher and sword, a deer hunter and knife, And a torturer and arrow, a horse trainer and needle.
And a slanderer is sewn, A corrupt magistrate had testicles as burden; An adulterer submerged in a pit, An eater of feces was a wicked brahmin.
A flayed woman was an adulteress, An ugly woman was a fortune-teller; A sweating woman poured coals on a co-wife, A beheaded man was an executioner.
A monk, a nun, a trainee nun, A novice monk, then a novice nun—These having gone forth in the training of Kassapa did bad deeds right there.
The Tapodā, battle in Rājagaha, And with the plunging in of elephants; The perfected monk Sobhita recalled five hundred eons.”

Case studies, part 2

At one time when the Buddha was staying at Rājagaha in the Bamboo Grove, the squirrel sanctuary, Venerable Lakkhaṇa and Venerable Mahāmoggallāna were staying on the Vulture Peak. One morning Mahāmoggallāna robed up, took his bowl and robe, went to Lakkhaṇa, and said, “Lakkhaṇa, let’s enter Rājagaha for almsfood.”

“Yes.”

As they descended from the Vulture Peak, Mahāmoggallāna smiled at a certain place. Lakkhaṇa asked him why, and Māhamoggallāna replied,

“This isn’t the right time to ask. Please ask me in the presence of the Buddha.”

Then, when they had eaten their meal and returned from almsround, Lakkhaṇa and Mahāmoggallāna went to the Buddha, bowed, and sat down. And Lakkhaṇa said to Mahāmoggallāna,

“Earlier on, as we were descending from the Vulture Peak, you smiled at a certain place. Why was that?”

“As I was coming down from the Vulture Peak, I saw a skeleton flying through the air. Vultures, crows, and hawks were pursuing it, striking it between the ribs, while it uttered cries of distress. And I thought how amazing and astonishing it is that such a being should exist, such a spirit, such a state of existence.”

But the monks complained and criticized him, “He’s claiming a superhuman ability!”

The Buddha then said to them:

“There are disciples who have vision and knowledge, who can know, see, and witness such things. I too, monks, have seen that being, but I didn’t speak about it. If I had, others wouldn’t have believed me, which would have led to their harm and suffering for a long time. That being was a cattle butcher right here in Rājagaha. As a result of his deeds, he was tormented in hell for many hundreds of thousands of years. And now, because of the remaining result of his actions, he’s experiencing such an existence. Moggallāna spoke truthfully. There’s no offense for Moggallāna.”

“As I was coming down from the Vulture Peak, I saw a lump of flesh flying through the air. Vultures, crows, and hawks were pursuing it, tearing at it and pulling it to pieces, while it uttered cries of distress. …” …

“… That being, monks, was a cattle butcher right here in Rājagaha. …”

“As I was coming down from the Vulture Peak, I saw a morsel of flesh flying through the air. Vultures, crows, and hawks were pursuing it, tearing at it and pulling it to pieces, while it uttered cries of distress. …” …

“… That being, monks, was a poultry butcher right here in Rājagaha. …”

“As I was coming down from the Vulture Peak, I saw a flayed man flying through the air. Vultures, crows, and hawks were pursuing him, tearing at him and pulling him to pieces, while he uttered cries of distress. …” …

“… That being, monks, was a sheep butcher right here in Rājagaha. …”

“As I was coming down from the Vulture Peak, I saw a man with swords for body hairs flying through the air. Again and again he was stabbed by those swords, while uttering cries of distress. …” …

“… That being, monks, was a pig butcher right here in Rājagaha. …”

“As I was coming down from the Vulture Peak, I saw a nun … I saw a trainee nun … I saw a novice monk … I saw a novice nun flying through the air. Her outer robe was ablaze and burning, as were her bowl, belt, and body. She uttered cries of distress. And I thought how amazing and astonishing it is that such a being should exist, such a spirit, such a state of existence.”

But the monks complained and criticized him, “He’s claiming a superhuman ability!”

The Buddha then said to them:

“There are disciples who possess vision and knowledge, who can see, know, and witness such things. I too, monks, have seen that novice nun, but I didn’t speak about it. If I had, others wouldn’t have believed me, which would have led to their harm and suffering for a long time. During the time of Buddha Kassapa’s dispensation, she was a bad novice nun. As a result of her deeds, she was tormented in hell for many hundreds of thousands of years. And now, because of the remaining result of her actions, she’s experiencing such an existence. Moggallāna spoke truthfully. There’s no offense for Moggallāna.”

Venerable Mahāmoggallāna said to the monks, “This stream, the Tapodā, flows from a lake with clear water—cool, sweet, and pure—with smooth and pleasant banks, with an abundance of fish and turtles, and with blooming lotuses the size of wheels.”

The monks complained and criticized him, “How can Venerable Mahāmoggallāna talk like this when the Tapodā is actually hot? He’s claiming a superhuman ability!” And they told the Buddha.

“Monks, the Tapodā does flow from a lake with clear water—cool, sweet, and pure—with smooth and pleasant banks, with an abundance of fish and turtles, and with blooming lotuses the size of wheels. But the Tapodā runs between two great hells. That’s why it’s hot. Moggallāna spoke truthfully. There’s no offense for Moggallāna.”

At one time King Seniya Bimbisāra of Magadha was defeated in battle by the Licchavīs. The king then rallied his army and beat the Licchavīs. People were delighted and the word spread that the Licchavīs had been defeated by the king.

But Venerable Mahāmoggallāna said to the monks, “The king was defeated by the Licchavīs.”

The monks complained and criticized him, “How can Venerable Moggallāna talk like this when people are delighted and the word is spreading that the Licchavīs have been defeated by the king? He’s claiming a superhuman ability!” They told the Buddha.

“Monks, first the king was defeated by the Licchavīs, but then he rallied his army and beat them. Moggallāna spoke truthfully. There’s no offense for Moggallāna.”

Venerable Mahāmoggallāna said to the monks, “After attaining an unshakable stillness on the banks of the river Sappinikā, I heard the sound of elephants plunging in and emerging from the water, and trumpeting too.”

The monks complained and criticized him, “How can Venerable Mahāmoggallāna talk like this? He’s claiming a superhuman ability!” They told the Buddha.

“Monks, there is such a stillness, but it’s not wholly purified. Moggallāna spoke truthfully. There’s no offense for Moggallāna.”

Venerable Sobhita said to the monks, “I can recall five hundred eons.”

The monks complained and criticized him, “How can Venerable Sobhita talk like this? He’s claiming a superhuman ability!” They told the Buddha.

“Monks, Sobhita has this ability, and that was just one birth. Sobhita spoke truthfully. There’s no offense for Sobhita.”

The fourth offense entailing expulsion is finished.

“Venerables, the four rules on expulsion have been recited. If a monk commits any one of them, he is no longer part of the community of monks. As before, so after: he’s expelled and excluded from the community. In regard to this I ask you, ‘Are you pure in this?’ A second time I ask, ‘Are you pure in this?’ A third time I ask, ‘Are you pure in this?’ You are pure in this and therefore silent. I’ll remember it thus.”

The offenses entailing expulsion are finished.

This is the summary:

“Sexual intercourse, and stealing, Person, super—The four offenses entailing expulsion, Definitive grounds for cutting off.”

The chapter on offenses entailing expulsion is finished.

The fourth training rule on expulsion 4. Catutthapārājikasikkhāpada

Origin story

First sub-story

I hope you had a comfortable and harmonious rains, and got almsfood without trouble?” kacci samaggā sammodamānā avivadamānā phāsukaṁ vassaṁ vasittha, na ca piṇḍakena kilamitthā”ti?

They then told him. Atha kho te bhikkhū bhagavato etamatthaṁ ārocesuṁ.

“But did you really have those superhuman qualities?” “Kacci pana vo, bhikkhave, bhūtan”ti?

“No, sir.” “Abhūtaṁ, bhagavā”ti.

“Whoever should declare himself Aññathā santamattānaṁ, To be other than he truly is, aññathā yo pavedaye; Has eaten this by theft, Nikacca kitavasseva, Like a cheater who has deceived. bhuttaṁ theyyena tassa taṁ.
Many ocher-necks of bad qualities, Kāsāvakaṇṭhā bahavo, Uncontrolled and wicked—pāpadhammā asaññatā; By their wicked deeds, Pāpā pāpehi kammehi, They are reborn in hell. nirayaṁ te upapajjare.
It’s better to eat an iron ball, Seyyo ayoguḷo bhutto, As hot as a licking flame, tatto aggisikhūpamo; Than for the immoral and uncontrolled Yañce bhuñjeyya dussīlo, To eat the country’s alms.” raṭṭhapiṇḍaṁ asaññatoti.

Preliminary ruling

In this way the Buddha laid down this training rule for the monks. Evañcidaṁ bhagavatā bhikkhūnaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ paññattaṁ hoti.

Second sub-story

And so, monks, this training rule should be recited like this: “Evañca pana, bhikkhave, imaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ uddiseyyātha—

Final ruling

‘If a monk falsely claims for himself a superhuman quality, a knowledge and vision worthy of the noble ones, saying, “This I know, this I see,” “Yo pana bhikkhu anabhijānaṁ uttarimanussadhammaṁ attupanāyikaṁ alamariyañāṇadassanaṁ samudācareyya—‘iti jānāmi iti passāmī’ti, but after some time—whether he is questioned or not, but having committed the offense and seeking purification—should say: “Not knowing I said that I know, not seeing that I see; what I said was empty and false,” then, tato aparena samayena samanuggāhīyamāno vā asamanuggāhīyamāno vā āpanno visuddhāpekkho evaṁ vadeyya—‘ajānamevaṁ, āvuso, avacaṁ jānāmi, apassaṁ passāmi. Tucchaṁ musā vilapin’ti, except if it is due to overestimation, aññatra adhimānā, he too is expelled and excluded from the community.’” ayampi pārājiko hoti asaṁvāso”ti.

He is questioned: Samanuggāhīyamānoti: he is questioned in regard to what he has claimed: yaṁ vatthu paṭiññātaṁ hoti tasmiṁ vatthusmiṁ samanuggāhīyamāno—“What did you attain?” “kinte adhigataṁ, “How did you attain it?” kinti te adhigataṁ, “When did you attain it?” kadā te adhigataṁ, “Where did you attain it?” kattha te adhigataṁ, “Which defilements did you abandon?” katame te kilesā pahīnā, “Which qualities did you gain?” katamesaṁ tvaṁ dhammānaṁ lābhī”ti.
Not: Asamanuggāhīyamānoti: he is not spoken to by anyone. na kenaci vuccamāno.
Having committed the offense: Āpannoti: having bad desires, overcome by desire, claiming to have a non-existent superhuman quality, he has committed an offense entailing expulsion. pāpiccho icchāpakato asantaṁ abhūtaṁ uttarimanussadhammaṁ ullapitvā pārājikaṁ āpattiṁ āpanno hoti.
Seeking purification: Visuddhāpekkhoti: he desires to be a householder, a lay follower, a monastery worker, or a novice monk. gihī vā hotukāmo upāsako vā hotukāmo ārāmiko vā hotukāmo sāmaṇero vā hotukāmo.
Not knowing I said that I know, not seeing that I see: Ajānamevaṁ, āvuso, avacaṁ—jānāmi, apassaṁ passāmīti: “I don’t know these qualities,” “I don’t see these qualities,” “These qualities aren’t found in me and I don’t conform to them.” nāhaṁ ete dhamme jānāmi, nāhaṁ ete dhamme passāmi, natthi ca ete dhammā mayi, na cāhaṁ etesu dhammesu sandissāmīti.
What I said was empty and false: Tucchaṁ musā vilapinti: “What I said was empty,” “What I said was false,” “What I said was unreal,” “I said it without knowing.” tucchakaṁ mayā bhaṇitaṁ, musā mayā bhaṇitaṁ, abhūtaṁ mayā bhaṇitaṁ, ajānantena mayā bhaṇitaṁ.
Except if it is due to overestimation: Aññatra adhimānāti: unless it is due to overestimation. ṭhapetvā adhimānaṁ.
He too: Ayampīti: this is said with reference to the preceding offenses entailing expulsion. purime upādāya vuccati.
Is expelled: Pārājiko hotīti: just as a palm tree with its crown cut off is incapable of further growth, seyyathāpi nāma tālo matthakacchinno abhabbo puna virūḷhiyā; so too is a monk with bad desires, overcome by desire, who claims to have a non-existent superhuman quality not an ascetic, not a Sakyan monastic. evameva bhikkhu pāpiccho icchāpakato asantaṁ abhūtaṁ uttarimanussadhammaṁ ullapitvā assamaṇo hoti asakyaputtiyo. Therefore it is said, “he is expelled.” Tena vuccati— “pārājiko hotī”ti.
Excluded from the community: Asaṁvāsoti: Community: joint legal procedures, a joint recitation, the same training—this is called “community”. saṁvāso nāma ekakammaṁ ekuddeso samasikkhatā— eso saṁvāso nāma. He does not take part in this—therefore it is called “excluded from the community”. So tena saddhiṁ natthi. Tena vuccati— “asaṁvāso”ti.
