English version ‘The Ariya Sangha (Noble Community) listen! One month of winter has passed, with one night remaining, and three months left. Old age and death are very near, and the Buddha's Dharma is about to decline. All you Ariyas (Noble Ones)! For the sake of attaining the Path, diligently strive with one mind. Why is that? Because all Buddhas, through diligent effort with one mind, attained Anuttara-samyak-sambodhi (Unsurpassed Perfect Enlightenment); how much more so should we with other supporting practices!’ ‘Those who have not received full ordination, please leave.’ ‘What should the Sangha do first now that it is assembled in harmony?’ (One person should answer: ‘Recite the Posadha (Uposatha, Observance Day) and recite the precepts.’) ‘All you Ariyas (Noble Ones)! Those Bhikkhunis (female monks) who are not present should declare their wishes and purity.’ ‘Join your ten fingers, palms together, and make offerings to Shakyamuni Buddha; I now wish to recite the precepts, the Sangha should listen attentively with one mind. Even for small offenses, one should feel great fear in one's heart; if there are offenses, repent wholeheartedly, and do not repeat them again. The mind is like a wild horse galloping on evil paths, difficult to restrain when unrestrained; the precepts spoken by the Buddha are like sharp reins. The teachings spoken by the Buddha, the virtuous are able to believe and accept; such a person is like a well-trained horse, able to destroy the army of afflictions. If one does not accept the teachings, nor loves the precepts; such a person is like an untamed horse, submerged in the army of afflictions. If one guards the precepts, like a yak cherishing its tail; binding the mind without negligence, like a monkey wearing chains. Diligently strive day and night, seeking true wisdom; such a person in the Buddha's Dharma, can attain a pure life.’ ‘The Ariya Sangha (Noble Community) listen! Today is the fifteenth day, the Posadha (Uposatha, Observance Day) for reciting the Pratimoksha (Code of Discipline). If the Sangha deems it the right time and consents, the Sangha should together perform the Posadha (Uposatha, Observance Day) and recite the Para -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 提木叉。白如是。”

“诸阿梨耶！今共布萨说波罗提木叉，僧一心善听，有罪者应发露，若无罪者默然。默然故，当知诸阿梨耶清净，如一一比丘尼问答，是比丘尼众中三唱亦如是。若比丘尼，如是比丘尼众中第二、第三唱，忆有罪者不发露得故妄语罪。诸阿梨耶！故妄语罪佛说遮道法。比丘尼于是中欲求清净，忆有罪应发露，发露则安隐，不发露罪益深。诸阿梨耶！已说波罗提木叉序。今问诸阿梨耶！是中清净不？”第二、第三如是问。 “诸阿梨耶！是中清净，默然故，是事如是持。” “诸阿梨耶！是八波罗夷法，半月半月波罗提木叉中说。 “若比丘尼，于和合二部僧中受具足戒，不还戒、戒羸不出，相行淫法，乃至共畜生，是比丘尼犯波罗夷罪，不应共住。 “若比丘尼，于聚落、若空地，不与取随盗物，王或捉、或杀、或缚、或摈出言：‘咄女人！汝贼，汝痴。’比丘尼如是不与取，波罗夷，不应共住。 “若比丘尼，自手夺人命，求持刀与杀者，教死、叹死：‘咄！人用恶活为？死胜生。’作如是意如是想，方便叹誉死快，因是死非余。是比丘尼波罗夷，不应共住。 “若比丘尼，未知未了，自称得过人法，圣知见殊胜：‘我如是知、如是见。’彼于后 现代汉语译本： ‘提木叉（Pratimoksha，戒经）。白如是。’ ‘诸位阿梨耶（Arya，圣者）！现在共同布萨（Posadha，斋戒）诵说波罗提木叉（Pratimoksha，戒经），僧团一心谛听，有罪者应当发露（confession），若无罪者保持沉默。因为沉默的缘故，应当知道诸位阿梨耶清净无染。如同每一位比丘尼问答一样，在比丘尼众中三次唱诵也是如此。如果比丘尼在比丘尼众中第二、第三次唱诵时，忆起有罪而不发露，就犯了故意的妄语罪。诸位阿梨耶！佛说故意的妄语罪是遮道法（obstructive dharma）。比丘尼在此中想要寻求清净，忆起有罪就应当发露，发露则能得到安稳，不发露罪过会更加深重。诸位阿梨耶！已经说完波罗提木叉的序言。现在问诸位阿梨耶！这里面清净吗？’第二次、第三次也这样问。 ‘诸位阿梨耶！这里面清净，因为沉默的缘故，这件事就这样持守。’ ‘诸位阿梨耶！这是八条波罗夷法（Parajika，断头罪），在半月半月的波罗提木叉中宣说。 如果比丘尼，在和合的二部僧（bhikshus and bhikshunis）中受具足戒（Upasampada，完整的戒律），不舍戒、戒行衰弱也不离开，行淫法，乃至与畜生行淫，这位比丘尼就犯了波罗夷罪，不应当与她同住。 如果比丘尼，在村落或者空旷的地方，不给予就拿取，偷盗他人的财物，国王或者捉住她、或者杀死她、或者捆绑她、或者驱逐她，并且说：‘可恶的女人！你是贼，你真是愚痴。’比丘尼像这样不给予就拿取，就犯了波罗夷罪，不应当与她同住。 如果比丘尼，亲手夺取人命，或者寻找刀交给杀人者，或者教唆他人去死、赞叹死亡：‘唉！人们这样痛苦地活着有什么用呢？死亡胜过生存。’如果她有这样的意图和想法，用各种方法赞美死亡的快乐，并且因为这个原因导致他人死亡，而不是其他原因。这位比丘尼就犯了波罗夷罪，不应当与她同住。 如果比丘尼，没有真正知道、没有真正了解，就自称获得了超越常人的法，获得了圣者的知见和殊胜的智慧：‘我像这样知道、像这样看见。’之后

English version: 'Pratimoksha (the code of monastic rules). Report thus.' 'Venerable Aryas (noble ones)! Now we will together perform the Posadha (observance day) and recite the Pratimoksha (code of monastic rules). The Sangha (community) should listen attentively. Those who have committed offenses should confess. Those who are without offense should remain silent. Because of your silence, it should be understood that you, the Venerable Aryas, are pure. Just as each Bhikkhuni (female monastic) answers, so too is it chanted three times in the Bhikkhuni Sangha (community of female monastics). If a Bhikkhuni, during the second or third chanting in the Bhikkhuni Sangha, remembers having committed an offense but does not confess, she commits the offense of intentional lying. Venerable Aryas! The Buddha has said that the offense of intentional lying is an obstructive dharma (obstacle to spiritual progress). A Bhikkhuni who wishes to be purified should confess any offense she remembers. Confession brings peace; non-confession deepens the offense. Venerable Aryas! The preamble to the Pratimoksha has been recited. Now I ask you, Venerable Aryas! Are you pure in this matter?' This question is asked a second and third time. 'Venerable Aryas! You are pure in this matter. Because of your silence, this matter is upheld in this way.' 'Venerable Aryas! These are the eight Parajika (defeats) rules, which are recited in the Pratimoksha every half-month. If a Bhikkhuni, having received full ordination (Upasampada, higher ordination) in a Sangha (community) of both Bhikkhus (male monastics) and Bhikkhunis, does not renounce the precepts, does not leave due to weakened precepts, and engages in sexual intercourse, even with an animal, that Bhikkhuni has committed a Parajika offense and should not be lived with. If a Bhikkhuni, in a village or in an empty place, takes what is not given, stealing property, and the king either seizes her, kills her, binds her, or banishes her, saying, 'Wretched woman! You are a thief, you are foolish!' If a Bhikkhuni takes what is not given in this way, she has committed a Parajika offense and should not be lived with. If a Bhikkhuni intentionally takes a human life, or seeks a knife to give to a murderer, or encourages death, or praises death, saying, 'Alas! What is the use of living a miserable life? Death is better than life.' If she has such an intention and thought, and by various means praises the happiness of death, and because of this, someone dies, and not for any other reason, that Bhikkhuni has committed a Parajika offense and should not be lived with. If a Bhikkhuni, not knowing and not understanding, claims to have attained superhuman qualities, superior knowledge and vision: 'I know thus, I see thus.'

English version If a Bhikkhuni (bhikkhuṇī, Buddhist nun), whether inspecting or not inspecting an offense, seeking purity, then says: ‘Āliya (ālíyé, venerable one)! I say I know what I do not know, I say I see what I do not see, speaking empty, false, and untrue words.’ Except for cases of increased pride (zēngshàngmàn, wrongly believing one has attained a higher spiritual state), this Bhikkhuni has committed a Pārājika (bōluóyí, expulsion offense), and should not live in association. If a Bhikkhuni with lustful intent, near a man with lustful intent, engages in touching below the shoulders and above the knees and enjoys it, this Bhikkhuni has committed a Pārājika, and should not live in association. If a Bhikkhuni with lustful intent, near a man with lustful intent, allows the man to extend his hand into her dwelling and converse, accepts his hand, grabs her robe, comes joyfully inviting her to sit, bends down close to her, and makes an appointment to leave together, this Bhikkhuni has committed a Pārājika, and should not live in association. If a Bhikkhuni knows that a Bhikkhu (bhikkhu, Buddhist monk) has committed a grave offense but does not tell others, and this Bhikkhuni later, whether having left the community, died, or disrobed, then says: ‘I knew earlier that this Bhikkhu had committed a grave offense.’ Because she did not tell others and did not want others to know, this Bhikkhuni has committed a Pārājika, and should not live in association. If a Bhikkhuni knows that the Sangha (saṃgha, monastic community) is united lawfully, according to the Vinaya (vinaya, monastic rules), and has performed an act of suspension (jǔjiémó, formal act of censure) against a Bhikkhu, and she follows along even when it has not been done lawfully. The Bhikkhunis should admonish this Bhikkhuni: ‘Āliya! This Bhikkhu, the Sangha is united lawfully, according to the Vinaya, and has performed an act of suspension; do not follow along when it has not been done lawfully.’ If this Bhikkhuni, when admonished by the Bhikkhunis, says: ‘If I do not follow along, who will follow along?’ The Bhikkhunis should admonish her a second and third time in this way, and it is good to abandon this matter; if she does not abandon it, this Bhikkhuni has committed a Pārājika, and should not live in association. Venerable Āliyas! The eight Pārājika rules have been spoken. If a Bhikkhuni commits any one of these rules, this Bhikkhuni should not live in association. As before, so it is afterward. A Bhikkhuni who has committed a Pārājika offense should not live in association. Now I ask the venerable Āliyas, are you pure in this matter?’ The second and third time, he asked in the same way. Venerable Āliyas! You are pure in this matter, because of your silence, this matter is thus accepted.’ Ve --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
