19. Dutiyagāthāsaṅgaṇika Verses on offenses, training rules, and legal procedures

1. Kāyikādiāpatti 1. Offenses by body, etc.

Kati āpattiyo kāyikā, “How many kinds of offenses are there by body?

Kati vācasikā katā; How many are done by speech?

Chādentassa kati āpattiyo, How many kinds of offenses are there for concealing?

Kati saṁsaggapaccayā. How many because of contact?

Chāpattiyo kāyikā, There are six kinds of offenses by body, Sp 5.474: Cha āpattiyo kāyikāti antarapeyyāle catutthena āpattisamuṭṭhānena cha āpattiyo āpajjati, “‘There are six kinds of offenses by body’: in the Internal Repetition, six offenses are committed through the fourth origination of offenses.” See Pvr 4:34.1–34.14. It is not clear why the commentary points to the fourth origination which concerns body and mind, not just body.

Cha vācasikā katā; Six are done by speech; Sp 5.474: Cha vācasikāti tasmiṁyeva antarapeyyāle pañcamena āpattisamuṭṭhānena cha āpattiyo āpajjati, “‘Six by speech’: in the Internal Repetition, six offenses are committed through the fifth origination of offenses.” See Pvr 4:35.1–35.14. Again, it is not clear why the commentary points to the fifth origination which concerns speech and mind, not just speech.

Chādentassa tisso āpattiyo, There are three kinds of offenses for concealing, Sp 5.474: Chādentassa tissoti vajjapaṭicchādikāya bhikkhuniyā pārājikaṁ, bhikkhussa saṅghādisesapaṭicchādane pācittiyaṁ, attano duṭṭhullāpattipaṭicchādane dukkaṭaṁ, “‘Three for concealing’: an offense entailing expulsion for a nun who hides offenses, an offense entailing confession for a monk who hides an offense entailing suspension, an offense of wrong conduct for hiding a coarse offense.” See respectively Bi Pj 6:1.23.1, Bu Pc 64:1.23.1, and Kd 13:34.1.4.

Pañca saṁsaggapaccayā. Five because of contact. Sp 5.474: Pañca saṁsaggapaccayāti bhikkhuniyā kāyasaṁsagge pārājikaṁ, bhikkhuno saṅghādiseso, kāyena kāyapaṭibaddhe thullaccayaṁ, nissaggiyena kāyapaṭibaddhe dukkaṭaṁ, aṅgulipatodake pācittiyanti imā kāyasaṁsaggapaccayā pañcāpattiyo, “‘Five because of contact’: physical contact is an offense entailing expulsion for a nun. For a monk it’s an offense entailing suspension. Contacting with the body what is connected to the body is a serious offense. Contacting by releasing what is connected to the body is an offense of wrong conduct. Tickling is an offense entailing confession.” The first of these refers to Bi Pj 5:1.54.1; the second, third, and fourth all refer to Bu Ss 2:1.2.15.1; and the last refers to Bu Pc 52:1.12.1.

There is an offense entailing suspension for a nun who stays apart for one night. ‘He conceals it during the first part of the night, during the second part of the night, and during the third part of the night. If he’s still concealing it at dawn, he has committed an offense and is to confess an offense of wrong conduct.’ These three offenses are committed at dawn.” The first category refers respectively to Bu NP 2:2.39.1, Bu NP 29:1.2.16.1, Bu NP 23:1.3.32.1, Bu NP 1:2.17.1, and Bu NP 3:1.3.13.1; the second category to Bi Ss 3:4.14.1; and the last to the monks’ offenses entailing suspension at Kd 13:34.2.4–34.2.6.

Dve yāvatatiyakā; Two after the third announcement; Sp 5.474: Dve yāvatatiyakāti ekādasa yāvatatiyakā nāma, paññattivasena pana dve honti bhikkhūnaṁ yāvatatiyakā bhikkhunīnaṁ yāvatatiyakāti, “‘Two after the third announcement’: eleven (offenses) are called ‘after the third announcement’. But on account of their designation, there are two: after the third announcement for the monks and after the third announcement for nuns.”

Ekettha aṭṭha vatthukā, One here has eight parts, Sp 5.474: Ekettha aṭṭhavatthukāti bhikkhunīnaṁyeva ekā ettha imasmiṁ sāsane aṭṭhavatthukā nāma, “‘One here has eight parts’: here in Buddhism one of the nuns’ (rules) is called ‘having eight parts’.” This refers to Bi Pj 8:1.11.1. “Rules” is supplied from Vmv 5.474.

Ekena sabbasaṅgaho. They are all included through one. Sp 5.474: Ekena sabbasaṅgahoti “yassa siyā āpatti, so āvikareyyā”ti iminā ekena nidānuddesena sabbasikkhāpadānañca sabbapātimokkhuddesānañca saṅgaho hoti, “‘They are all included through one’: all training rules and the whole recitation of the Monastic Code are included through this one reference in the Introduction that ‘whoever might have an offense should reveal it’.” See Kd 2:3.3.9.

These two are called offenses for concealing grave offenses.” The first refers to Bi Pj 6:1.23.1 and the second to Bu Pc 64:1.23.1.

When a nun goes to another village, there is a serious offense for entering an enclosed village with the first foot, and an offense entailing suspension for the second foot. …” The first two of these refer to Bu Pc 27:2.15.1, and the last two to Bi Ss 3:4.14.1. The idea of “vicinity” of the next village is taken from the commentary to Bu Pc 27.

Catasso nadipārapaccayā; Four because of crossing a river; Sp 5.474: Catasso nadipārapaccayāti “bhikkhu bhikkhuniyā saddhiṁ saṁvidahati, dukkaṭaṁ; nāvaṁ abhiruhati, pācittiyaṁ; bhikkhuniyā nadipāraṁ gacchantiyā uttaraṇakāle paṭhamapāde thullaccayaṁ, dutiyapāde saṅghādiseso”ti imā catasso, “Four because of crossing a river’: there is an offense of wrong conduct when a monk makes an arrangement with a nun, and an offense entailing confession when boarding the boat.

In giving robe-cloth to an unrelated nun, there is an offense entailing confession.

There is not even a single training rule that was laid down in regard to the mind door.” In the Canonical text, however, this line seems to be connected to the previous one, that is, only to the heavy offenses.

dve saṁvāsakabhūmiyo; There are two grounds for belonging to the same Buddhist sect; Sp 5.475: Dve saṁvāsabhūmiyoti attanā vā attānaṁ samānasaṁvāsakaṁ karoti, samaggo vā saṅgho ukkhittaṁ osāreti, “‘There are two grounds for belonging to the same Buddhist sect’: either one makes oneself belong to the same Buddhist sect, or a unanimous assembly readmits one who has been ejected.” See Kd 10:1.10.6.

Dvinnaṁ ratticchedo, There are non-countable days for two kinds of people, Sp 5.475: Dvinnaṁ ratticchedoti pārivāsikassa ca mānattacārikassa ca paññattā, “‘There are non-countable days for two kinds of people’: it is laid down for those on probation and for those undertaking the trial period.”

dvīhi saṅgho bhijjati; Two kinds cause a schism in the Sangha; Sp 5.475: Dvīhi saṅgho bhijjatīti kammena ca salākaggāhena ca, “‘Two kinds cause a schism in the Sangha’: through a legal procedure and through voting.”

Dvettha paṭhamāpattikā, Two here are immediate offenses, Sp 5.475: Dvettha paṭhamāpattikāti ettha sakalepi vinaye dve paṭhamāpattikā ubhinnaṁ paññattivasena. Itarathā pana nava bhikkhūnaṁ nava bhikkhunīnanti aṭṭhārasa honti, “‘Two here are immediate offenses’: here, in the whole Monastic Law, there are two kinds immediate offenses on account of their designation to both.” Sp-yoj 5.475: Ubhinnanti bhikkhubhikkhunīnaṁ, “‘To both’: to the monks and to the nuns.”

ñattiyā karaṇā duve. There are two ways of doing a motion. Sp 5.475: Ñattiyā karaṇā duveti dve ñattikiccāni – kammañca kammapādakā ca, “‘There are two ways of doing a motion’: there are two kinds of motions to be done: the legal procedure and the legal procedure with supports.” Sp 5.475: Kammañca kammapādakā cāti ettha yasmā ñattikammesu ñatti sayameva kammaṁ hoti, ñattidutiyañatticatutthesu kammesu anussāvanasaṅkhātassa kammassa ñattipādakabhāvena tiṭṭhati, tasmā imāni dve “ñattikiccānī”ti vuttāni, “‘The legal procedure and the legal procedure with supports’: here, for the legal procedure consisting of one motion, the motion itself is the legal procedure. For the legal procedure consisting of one motion and one announcement and for the legal procedure consisting of one motion and three announcements, there remains for the procedure that which is called the proclamation by way of supporting the motion. Therefore it is said that there are these two kinds of motions to be done.”

If a spirit or ghost dies, there is a serious offense. If an animal dies, there is an offense of wrong conduct.”

Vācā pārājikā tayo; There are three offenses entailing expulsion because of speech; This refers to Bi Pj 6:1.23.1, Bi Pj 7:1.11.1, and Bi Pj 8:1.11.1.

Apart from the private parts, there is a serious offense for praising and disparaging what is below the collar bone but above the knees. There is an offense of wrong conduct for praising and disparaging what is below the knees or above the collar bone.” All refer to Bu Ss 3.

Sañcarittena vā tayo. And three kinds because of matchmaking. Sp 5.475: Sañcarittena vā tayoti paṭiggaṇhāti vīmaṁsati paccāharati, āpatti saṅghādisesassa; paṭiggaṇhāti vīmaṁsati na paccāharati, āpatti thullaccayassa; paṭiggaṇhāti na vīmaṁsati na paccāharati, āpatti dukkaṭassāti, “‘And three kinds because of matchmaking’: there is an offense entailing suspension if one accepts the mission, finds out the response, and reports back. There is a serious offense if one accepts the mission, finds out the response, but does not report back. There is an offense of wrong conduct if one accepts the mission, but does not find out the response, nor report back.” All three refer to Bu Ss 5:2.2.13.1.

Kati kammānaṁ saṅgahā; How many things bring the legal procedures together?

Nāsitakā kati vuttā, How many kinds are said to be expelled?

Tayo puggalā na upasampādetabbā, Three kinds of people should not be ordained, Sp 5.475: Tayo puggalā na upasampādetabbāti addhānahīno aṅgahīno vatthuvipanno ca tesaṁ nānākaraṇaṁ vuttameva, “‘Three kinds of people should not be ordained’: one lacking in age, one lacking in limbs, and one deficient as object. The difference between them has been spoken of.” See Pvr 7:9.2 and Pvr 7:63.28.

Tayo kammānaṁ saṅgahā; Three things bring the legal procedures together; Sp 5.475: Tayo kammānaṁ saṅgahāti … Aparehipi tīhi kammāni saṅgayhanti – vatthunā, ñattiyā, anussāvanāyāti. Vatthusampannañhi ñattisampannaṁ anussāvanasampannañca kammaṁ nāma hoti, tena vuttaṁ “tayo kammānaṁ saṅgahā”ti, “‘Three things bring the legal procedures together’: … The legal procedures are also brought together through three other things: the object, the motion, and the announcement. For it is called a legal procedure when endowed with object, motion, and announcement. Because of that it is said, ‘Three things bring the legal procedures together.’” I have elided the first explanation in the commentary because of obscurity.

Nāsitakā tayo vuttā, Three kinds are said to be expelled, Sp 5.475: Nāsitakā tayo nāma mettiyaṁ bhikkhuniṁ nāsetha, dūsako nāsetabbo, dasahaṅgehi samannāgato sāmaṇero nāsetabbo, kaṇṭakaṁ samaṇuddesaṁ nāsethāti evaṁ liṅgasaṁvāsadaṇḍakammanāsanāvasena tayo nāsitakā veditabbā, “‘Three kinds are expelled’: ‘Expel the nun Mettiyā’; a rapist is to be expelled; a novice monk who has ten qualities is to be expelled, ‘Expel the novice monk Kaṇṭaka.’ In this way, it is to be understood that three kinds of persons are to be expelled: expulsion because of their characteristics, from community, and as a penalty.” Sp 1.384: Tattha tisso nāsanā – liṅganāsanā, saṁvāsanāsanā, daṇḍakammanāsanāti. Tāsu “dūsako nāsetabbo”ti ayaṁ “liṅganāsanā”. Āpattiyā adassane vā appaṭikamme vā pāpikāya diṭṭhiyā appaṭinissagge vā ukkhepanīyakammaṁ karonti, ayaṁ “saṁvāsanāsanā”. “Cara pire vinassā”ti daṇḍakammaṁ karonti, ayaṁ “daṇḍakammanāsanā”. Idha pana liṅganāsanaṁ sandhāyāha – “mettiyaṁ bhikkhuniṁ nāsethā”ti, “There are three kinds of expulsion: expulsion because of characteristic, expulsion from the community, and expulsion as penalty. Among these, ‘A rapist is to be expelled’—this is expulsion because of characteristic. Doing a legal procedure of ejection for not recognizing an offense, for not making amends, or for not giving up a bad view—this is expulsion from the community. Giving a penalty, saying, ‘Go! Away with you!’—this is expulsion as penalty. But in this case, ‘Expel the nun Mettiyā,’ was said on account of expulsion because of characteristic.” For the expulsion of the nun Mettiyā, see Bu Ss 8:1.9.13. For the rapist, see Kd 1:67.1.12. For the ten qualities of a novice monk to be expelled, see Kd 1:60.1.5–60.1.15.

Tiṇṇannaṁ ekavācikā. Three are included in a single proclamation. Sp 5.475: Tiṇṇannaṁ ekavācikāti “anujānāmi bhikkhave dve tayo ekānussāvane kātu”nti vacanato tiṇṇaṁ janānaṁ ekupajjhāyena nānācariyena ekānussāvanā vaṭṭati, “‘Three are included in a single proclamation’: a single proclamation for three people with a single preceptor and many teachers is allowed because of the saying, ‘Monks, I allow you to give the full ordination to two or three with a single proclamation.’” For the context of the quoted part, see Kd 1:74.3.7.

Kati methunapaccayā; How many because of sexual intercourse?

Chindantassa kati āpattiyo, How many kinds of offenses for cutting?

Kati chaḍḍitapaccayā. How many because of discarding?

Adinnādāne tisso āpattiyo, There are three kinds of offenses for stealing, Sp 5.475: Adinnādāne tissoti pāde vā atirekapāde vā pārājikaṁ, atirekamāsake thullaccayaṁ, māsake vā ūnamāsake vā dukkaṭaṁ, “‘Three for stealing’: for a pāda coin or more than a pāda, there is an offense entailing expulsion. For more than a māsaka, there is a serious offense. For a māsaka or less than a māsaka, there is an offense of wrong conduct.” This all refers to Bu Pj 2, respectively at Bu Pj 2:3.19, Bu Pj 2:6.1.12, and Bu Pj 2:6.1.20.

There is a serious offense for a mostly decomposed corpse. There is an offense of wrong conduct for an open mouth. There is an offense entailing confession for using a dildo.” The first three of these refer to Bu Pj 1:9.3.20, Bu Pj 1:9.3.23, and Bu Pj 1:10.13.15, respectively. The fourth refers to Bi Pc 4:1.21.1.

Pañca chaḍḍitapaccayā. Five because of discarding.

Bhikkhunovādakavaggasmiṁ, In the subchapter on the instructor of nuns,

Katettha navakā vuttā, How many groups of nine are mentioned there?

Bhikkhunovādakavaggasmiṁ, In the subchapter on the instructor of nuns,

Pācittiyena dukkaṭā katā; There is one offense of wrong conduct together with one offense entailing confession; Sp 5.475: Pācittiyena dukkaṭā katāti bhikkhunovādakavaggasmiṁ dasasu sikkhāpadesu pācittiyena saddhiṁ dukkaṭā katā evāti attho, “‘There is one offense of wrong conduct together with one offense entailing confession’: in the ten training rules in the subchapter on the instructor of the nuns, there is an offense of wrong conduct together with an offense entailing confession. This is the meaning.” Dukkaṭā katā would seem to be plural, but according to the sub-commentary, it should be read as singular. Vjb 5.475: Dukkaṭā katāti dukkaṭaṁ vuttaṁ, “Dukkaṭā katā: an offense of wrong conduct is said.” This refers to Bu Pc 21:1.44.1–30.

Caturettha navakā vuttā, Four groups of nine are mentioned there, Sp 5.475: Caturettha navakā vuttāti paṭhamasikkhāpadamhiyeva adhammakamme dve, dhammakamme dveti evaṁ cattāro navakā vuttāti attho, “‘Four groups of nine are mentioned there’: in the first training rule, there are two illegitimate and two legitimate legal procedures. In this way, it said that there are four groups of nine. This is the meaning.” This refers to Bu Pc 21:3.2.1.

Dvinnaṁ cīvarena ca. And two about robes.

For one giving to a nun who is fully ordained in the presence of the nuns, there is an offense of wrong conduct.” This refers to Bu Pc 25:2.11.1. “In the presence of the nuns” presumably means that the nun is only ordained on one side, whereas “in the presence of the monks” must refer to one ordained on both sides.

Bhikkhunīnañca akkhātā, How many offenses entailing acknowledgment

Pāṭidesaniyā kati; Have been declared to the nuns?

When entering the vicinity of a village, there is an offense entailing confession. If a nun walks to the next inhabited area by herself, there is a serious offense when she enters the vicinity of the inhabited area with her first foot. There is an offense entailing suspension when she enters with the second foot.” For the first two of these, see Bu Pc 27:2.15.1 and Bu Pc 67:1.28.1. For the remaining two, see Bi Ss 3:4.14.1.

How? If a nun, on account of close friendship, stands within arm’s reach of a man in a dark or secluded place, there is an offense entailing confession. If she stands outside of arm’s reach, there is an offense of wrong conduct. If, at the time of dawn, she is in the process of going beyond arm’s reach of her companion, there is a serious offense. If she stands outside of arm’s reach, there is an offense entailing suspension.” For the first two of these, see Bi Pc 11:1.12.1 and Bi Pc 12:1.13.1. For the remaining two, see Bi Ss 3:4.14.1.

Nisinnassa catasso āpattiyo, There are four kinds of offenses for sitting down, Sp 5.475: Nisinnassa catasso āpattiyo nipannassāpi tattakāti sacepi hi sā nisīdati vā nipajjati vā, etāyeva catasso āpattiyo āpajjati, “‘There are four kinds of offenses for sitting, and the same number for lying down’: for even if she sits down or lies down, she commits these four offenses.”

Nipannassāpi tattakā. And the same number for lying down.”

If, because of livelihood, a monk eats fine foods that he has requested for himself, there is an offense entailing confession. If, because of livelihood, a nun eats fine foods that she has requested for herself, there is an offense entailing acknowledgment. If, because of livelihood, one who is not sick requests bean curry or rice for themselves and then eats it, there is an offense of wrong conduct.” The first and the third of these refer to Bu Pj 4:2.12.1 and Bu Pj 4:6.1.53, the second to Bu Ss 5:2.2.13.1, the fourth to Bu Pc 39:2.10.1, the fifth to Bi Pd 1:1.2.9.1–8, and the sixth to Bu Sk 37:2.10.1.

Therein, for two there are offenses with no ambiguity. But for trainee nuns, novice monks, and novice nuns the unallowable is not allowed. In this interpretation, there is no offense to be confessed for them, but a penalty may be imposed on them.”

For the speaking of a decision for the sake of a bowl or a robe, etc., to these five is called a legal issue.” The first sentence merely shows that the Canonical text should be read as an accusative rather than an instrumental. Sp-yoj 5.476: Pañcannamevāti sahadhammikānaṁyeva, “For five: for one’s co-monastics.” The commentarial explanations seem to point to the procedures by which requisites are given out to monastics.

Katinañceva anāpatti, For how many are there non-offenses?

Katavītikkamo hi puggalo sappaṭikammaṁ āpattiṁ saṅghamajjhe gaṇamajjhe puggalasantike vā paṭikaritvā abbhuṇhasīlo pākatiko hoti, tasmā tīhi ṭhānehi sobhatīti vuccati, “‘And one shines for three reasons’: one shines for three reasons, that is, through the Sangha, etc. A person who has committed an offense makes amends for a curable offense in the middle of the Sangha, in the middle of a group, or to an individual. One has then refreshed one’s virtue and is restored to one’s natural state. For this reason one shines for three reasons.” Sp-ṭ 5.476: Abbhuṇhasīloti abhinavasīlo: “Abbhuṇhasīlo: fresh virtue.”

There is an offense of wrong conduct if she stands, etc., outside of arm’s reach.” See Bi Pc 11:1.12.1.

Dve kāyikā divā; Two by body by day; Sp 5.476: Dve kāyikā divāti eteneva upāyena divā paṭicchanne okāse dve āpattiyo āpajjati, “‘Two by body by day’: by the same method, one commits two offenses in a concealed place by day.” See Bi Pc 12:1.13.1.

Nijjhāyantassa ekā āpatti, There is one kind of offense for staring, Sp 5.476: Nijjhāyantassa ekā āpattīti “na ca, bhikkhave, sārattena mātugāmassa aṅgajātaṁ upanijjhāyitabbaṁ.

If you do, you commit an offense of wrong conduct.’” See Bu Ss 1:5.12.5.

Ekā piṇḍapātapaccayā. One because of almsfood. Sp 5.476: Ekā piṇḍapātapaccayāti “na ca, bhikkhave, bhikkhādāyikāya mukhaṁ oloketabba”nti ettha dukkaṭāpatti, “‘One because of almsfood’: ‘Monks, one shouldn’t look the donor in the face.’ Here there is an offense of wrong conduct.” See Kd 18:5.2.27.

Ukkhittakā kati vuttā, How many kinds are said to be ejected?

Aṭṭhānisaṁse sampassaṁ, Seeing eight benefits, Sp 5.476: Aṭṭhānisaṁse sampassanti kosambakakkhandhake vuttānisaṁse, “‘Seeing eight benefits’: the benefits mentioned in The Chapter Connected with Kosambī.” According to Vmv 5.476 this refers to Kd 10:1.8.6–1.8.16.

Paresaṁ saddhāya desaye; One should confess out of confidence in others;
