English version: The Nirvasana-karma (Nirvasana-karma, act of expulsion from the Sangha) for Bhikshu (monk) so-and-so who has committed a Parajika (Parajika, defeat) offense, forbidding co-residence and co-participation in activities, those who agree, please remain silent; those who disagree, please speak. This is the first karma. (Repeat this three times.) The Sangha (community) has already agreed to perform the Nirvasana-karma for Bhikshu so-and-so who has committed a Parajika offense, forbidding co-residence and co-participation in activities. The Sangha agrees, as everyone is silent, this matter is thus decided. (This is permanent expulsion, with no means of reversal.) The subsequent three karmas are all methods of punishment, differing only in the severity of the offense, thus divided into three levels. The preceding rebuke karma and others are methods of taming, the karma concerning the place of offense and others are methods of subduing, the Nirvasana-karma and others are methods of expulsion, hence the sutra says: 'Those who should be tamed, tame them; those who should be subdued, subdue them; those who should be punished and expelled, punish and expel them.' If speaking according to specific matters, the karmas are not limited to these; detailed explanations are in the Vinaya (monastic code), where could one collect them all? Therefore, each should follow its part, only marking one karma as a constant model, and the rest can be understood by analogy. 《The Bhikshuni (nun) Karma Rituals in the Four-Part Vinaya》, one volume According to this one volume of karma rituals, the Song edition and the Guo edition are the same, while the Dan edition is different from these two. Why is that? Now examining the Dan edition, it is largely the same in meaning as the texts collected by Huaisu, and its beginning and end are orderly and worth viewing, knowing that it is the correct original translated by Kumarajiva (Kumarajiva), so it is taken into the Tripitaka (Buddhist canon). The Guo and Song editions are very confused. As for the examples of Bhikshuni ordination from beginning to end, first requesting ordination, then receiving the ten precepts and studying the Dharma, two years later receiving full ordination, and only after a long time requesting the Gana-bhojana-karma (Gana-bhojana-karma, communal meal karma) to ordain people and bestow precepts, this is its order. In the two editions, in the text of requesting the Upadhyaya (preceptor) for receiving the six Dharmas (Sad-dharma, six rules), the text of the Shramanera (novice) requesting the ten precepts is used repeatedly, this is one confusion. Placing the text of requesting the Gana-bhojana-karma before receiving the full ordination, this is the second confusion. Whenever a Bhikshuni receives ordination, she first receives it among the Bhikshunis, and then receives it among the Bhikshus; the two editions say: 'The Sangha of both communities listens.' Not distinguishing the order, this is the third confusion. In the six Dharmas of studying the precepts, the 《Four-Part Vinaya》 takes eating at the wrong time and drinking alcohol as the fifth and sixth, while the two editions take touching the eight matters (Sparsha-ashta-vastu, eight kinds of touching behaviors) as the fifth and sixth, this is the fourth confusion. The title already says: 'The Nun' --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Karma: The two versions contain the rules for a Bhikshu ordaining a Shramanera, a Shramanera receiving the ten precepts, a great Sangha receiving the full precepts, etc., which are five confusions. The ‘Kaiyuan Record’ states ‘Translated by Gunabhadra (求那跋摩) of the Song Dynasty.’ The two versions only mention: the rules for women leaving home, which is the sixth confusion. Therefore, it is known that these two versions are reckless transcriptions made by unfounded people of later generations and should not be relied upon. They are now specifically discarded. ◎ Do Bhikshunis need to report their desires and purity to the Sangha? (Except for establishing boundaries, there is no rule for receiving desires. If it is the Pravāraṇā day, it should be said:) Report desires and Pravāraṇā. (It should also be reported to the Sangha:) Great Sisters, the Sangha listens! What is the Sangha going to do now? (One person in the Sangha should answer according to the previous matter:) So-and-so (某甲) (name) Karma. (Only the boundary establishment method, the two boundaries cannot be connected, there should be an intermediate space left, and it cannot be established across a rapid stream, unless there is a bridge. If you want to set up a precept platform within the great boundary, first erect the four-sided signs of the precept platform, and outside, at a distance of one elbow, erect the signs within the great boundary, and outside also erect the four-sided signs according to the distance. Let an elder Bhikshuni chant the four-sided signs, and the one in the Sangha who is capable of performing Karma should establish the boundary. The great boundary should be established first, and then the precept platform. If you want to chant the signs of this great boundary, start from the southeast corner of the outer sign and go around the four sides once; then chant the inner sign and also go around once. Say: ‘That is the outer sign, this is the inner sign, this is one round of the inner and outer signs of the great boundary.’ Chant this three times. If there is no precept platform inside, chant the outer sign directly. For the method of establishing the great and small boundaries, the Sangha should all gather, and desires should not be received.) Karma Text for Establishing the Great Boundary Great Sisters, the Sangha listens! Bhikshuni So-and-so (某甲) (name) of this dwelling place chants the signs of the four-sided great boundary. If the Sangha thinks the time has come, and the Sangha approves, the Sangha now establishes the great boundary within these four-sided signs, becoming the same dwelling place, and reciting the precepts together. The report is completed. Great Sisters, the Sangha listens! Bhikshuni So-and-so (某甲) (name) of this dwelling place chants the signs of the four-sided great boundary. The Sangha now establishes the great boundary within these four-sided signs, becoming the same dwelling place, and reciting the precepts together. Which great sister approves of the Sangha establishing the great boundary within these four-sided signs, becoming the same --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
