English version: ‘Just as a bee collects honey without damaging the flower's color or fragrance, taking only the essence; a Bhikkhu (Buddhist monk) enters a village without disrupting others' affairs, not observing what others do or do not do, but only observing his own actions, carefully examining what is good and what is not good.’ ‘Konakamuni Buddha (one of the past seven Buddhas), the Tathagata (one of the titles of a Buddha), the Arhat (one who is worthy of offerings), the Samyaksambuddha (fully enlightened one), for the peaceful Sangha (monastic community), briefly speaks the Pratimoksha (code of monastic rules):’ ‘“If you wish to have a good mind, do not be negligent; diligently study the good Dharma (teachings) of the saints; if there is a wise, peaceful, and single-minded person, then there will be no more sorrow and suffering.”’ ‘Kasyapa Buddha (one of the past seven Buddhas), the Tathagata, the Arhat, the Samyaksambuddha, for the peaceful Sangha, briefly speaks the Pratimoksha:’ ‘“Do no evil, fully cultivate all good deeds; purify your own mind; this is the teaching of all Buddhas.”’ ‘Sakyamuni Buddha (the present Buddha), the Tathagata, the Arhat, the Samyaksambuddha, for the peaceful Sangha, briefly speaks the Pratimoksha:’ ‘“Guarding the body is good! Being able to guard the mouth is also good; guarding the mind is good! Guarding everything is good. A Bhikkhu who guards everything will be able to escape all suffering; A Bhikkhu who guards his mouth and mind, and whose body does not commit any evil deeds, These three actions are pure, and one can attain the path attained by the saints. If someone strikes or scolds and you do not retaliate, and you do not harbor hatred in your heart for those who hold grudges, If your heart is always pure towards those who are angry, and you do not do the evil deeds that you see others do.”’ ‘The seven Buddhas (referring to the past seven Buddhas) are the honored ones of the world, able to save and protect the world; The precepts that are to be spoken, I have already spoken extensively. All the Buddhas and their disciples, respect this code of precepts; After respecting the code of precepts, everyone respects each other. Having a sense of shame and remorse, one can attain the unconditioned path.’’ The Pratimoksha Sutra has been spoken. The Sangha wholeheartedly accepts and practices it.
