'Listen, Great Sisters of the Sangha! This Bhikṣuṇī named so-and-so, now requests permission from the Sangha to ordain someone and grant them full ordination; the Sangha now grants permission to the Bhikṣuṇī named so-and-so to ordain someone and grant them full ordination. Whoever among the Great Sisters approves of the Sangha granting permission to the Bhikṣuṇī named so-and-so to ordain someone and grant them full ordination, let them be silent; whoever does not approve, let them speak. The Sangha has already approved granting permission to the Bhikṣuṇī named so-and-so to ordain someone and grant them full ordination. The Sangha approves, because of the silence, this matter is thus decided.' Text for Ordaining a Śrāmaṇerikā (If one wishes to shave the head within the monastery, one should inform the entire Sangha.
