Origin 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. It was not easy to get by on almsfood. Tena kho pana samayena vajjī dubbhikkhā hoti—dvīhitikā setaṭṭhikā salākāvuttā, na sukarā uñchena paggahena yāpetuṁ.

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

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

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

Still others said, “There’s no need to do work or take messages for them. Ekacce evamāhaṁsu—“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, 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.’ ‘asuko bhikkhu paṭhamassa jhānassa lābhī, asuko bhikkhu dutiyassa jhānassa lābhī, asuko bhikkhu tatiyassa jhānassa lābhī, asuko bhikkhu catutthassa jhānassa lābhī, asuko bhikkhu sotāpanno, asuko bhikkhu sakadāgāmī, asuko bhikkhu anāgāmī, asuko bhikkhu arahā, asuko bhikkhu tevijjo, 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, and get almsfood without trouble. Evaṁ mayaṁ samaggā sammodamānā avivadamānā phāsukaṁ vassaṁ vasissāma, na ca piṇḍakena kilamissāmā”ti. This is the way to go.” “Eso yeva 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, “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.” Atha kho te manussā—“lābhā vata no, suladdhaṁ vata no, yesaṁ no evarūpā bhikkhū vassaṁ upagatā, 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 bhuñjanti, mātāpitūnaṁ denti puttadārassa denti dāsakammakaraporisassa denti mittāmaccānaṁ denti ñātisālohitānaṁ denti yādisāni bhikkhūnaṁ denti. 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 pattacīvaramādāya yena vesālī tena pakkamiṁsu. When they eventually arrived, they went to the hall with the peaked roof in the Great Wood. Anupubbena yena vesālī mahāvanaṁ kūṭāgārasālā yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkamiṁsu; There they approached the Buddha, bowed, and sat down. 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. Jānantāpi tathāgatā pucchanti, jānantāpi na pucchanti. They know the right time to ask and when not to ask. Kālaṁ viditvā pucchanti, kālaṁ viditvā na pucchanti. Buddhas ask when it is beneficial, otherwise not, Atthasañhitaṁ tathāgatā pucchanti, no anatthasañhitaṁ. for Buddhas are incapable of doing what is unbeneficial. Anatthasañhite setughāto tathāgatānaṁ. 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, “In what way, monks, did you have a comfortable and harmonious rains? And how did you get almsfood without trouble?” Atha kho bhagavā vaggumudātīriye bhikkhū etadavoca—“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?

“Yes, sir.” “Bhūtaṁ, bhagavā”ti.

The Buddha rebuked them, Vigarahi buddho bhagavā …pe… “How could you for the sake of your stomachs talk up one another’s superhuman qualities to householders? kathañhi nāma tumhe, bhikkhave, udarassa kāraṇā gihīnaṁ aññamaññassa uttarimanussadhammassa vaṇṇaṁ bhāsissatha. This will affect people’s confidence …” … Netaṁ, bhikkhave, appasannānaṁ vā pasādāya …pe… “And, monks, this training rule should be recited like this: evañca pana, bhikkhave, imaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ uddiseyyātha—

Final ruling

‘If a monk truthfully tells a person who is not fully ordained of a superhuman quality, he commits an offense entailing confession.’” “Yo pana bhikkhu anupasampannassa uttarimanussadhammaṁ āroceyya bhūtasmiṁ, pācittiyan”ti.

8. The training rule on telling truthfully

Origin 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 live together in peace and harmony, have a comfortable rains, 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 do 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 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?”

“Yes, sir.”

The Buddha rebuked them, “How could you for the sake of your stomachs talk up one another’s superhuman qualities to householders? This will affect people’s confidence …” … “And, monks, this training rule should be recited like this:
