“For two reasons the Realized One laid down for his disciples the monastic code … the recitation of the monastic code … the suspension of the recitation of the monastic code … the invitation to admonish … the setting aside of the invitation to admonish … the disciplinary act of condemnation … placing under dependence … banishment … reconciliation … debarment … probation … being sent back to the beginning … penance … reinstatement … restoration … removal … ordination … an act with a motion … an act with a motion and one announcement … an act with a motion and three announcements … laying down what was not previously laid down … amending what was laid down … the settling of a disciplinary matter by the following methods: face-to-face … through recollection … because of past insanity … acting according to what has been admitted … majority decision … further penalty… covering over as if with grass. “Dveme, bhikkhave, atthavase paṭicca tathāgatena sāvakānaṁ pātimokkhaṁ paññattaṁ …pe… pātimokkhuddeso paññatto … pātimokkhaṭṭhapanaṁ paññattaṁ … pavāraṇā paññattā … pavāraṇaṭṭhapanaṁ paññattaṁ … tajjanīyakammaṁ paññattaṁ … niyassakammaṁ paññattaṁ … pabbājanīyakammaṁ paññattaṁ … paṭisāraṇīyakammaṁ paññattaṁ … ukkhepanīyakammaṁ paññattaṁ … parivāsadānaṁ paññattaṁ … mūlāyapaṭikassanaṁ paññattaṁ … mānattadānaṁ paññattaṁ … abbhānaṁ paññattaṁ … osāraṇīyaṁ paññattaṁ … nissāraṇīyaṁ paññattaṁ … upasampadā paññattā … ñattikammaṁ paññattaṁ … ñattidutiyakammaṁ paññattaṁ … ñatticatutthakammaṁ paññattaṁ … apaññatte paññattaṁ … paññatte anupaññattaṁ … sammukhāvinayo paññatto … sativinayo paññatto … amūḷhavinayo paññatto … paṭiññātakaraṇaṁ paññattaṁ … yebhuyyasikā paññattā … tassapāpiyasikā paññattā … tiṇavatthārako paññatto.
What two? Katame dve? For the well-being and comfort of the Saṅgha … For keeping difficult individuals in check and for the comfort of good-hearted mendicants … For restraining defilements that affect this life and protecting against defilements that affect lives to come … For restraining threats to this life and protecting against threats to lives to come … For restraining faults that affect this life and protecting against faults that affect lives to come … For restraining hazards that affect this life and protecting against hazards that affect lives to come … For restraining unskillful qualities that affect this life and protecting against unskillful qualities that affect lives to come … Out of sympathy for laypeople and for breaking up factions of mendicants with corrupt wishes … For inspiring confidence in those without it, and increasing confidence in those who have it … For the continuation of the true teaching and the support of the training. Saṅghasuṭṭhutāya, saṅghaphāsutāya … dummaṅkūnaṁ puggalānaṁ niggahāya, pesalānaṁ bhikkhūnaṁ phāsuvihārāya … diṭṭhadhammikānaṁ āsavānaṁ saṁvarāya, samparāyikānaṁ āsavānaṁ paṭighātāya … diṭṭhadhammikānaṁ verānaṁ saṁvarāya, samparāyikānaṁ verānaṁ paṭighātāya … diṭṭhadhammikānaṁ vajjānaṁ saṁvarāya, samparāyikānaṁ vajjānaṁ paṭighātāya … diṭṭhadhammikānaṁ bhayānaṁ saṁvarāya, samparāyikānaṁ bhayānaṁ paṭighātāya … diṭṭhadhammikānaṁ akusalānaṁ dhammānaṁ saṁvarāya, samparāyikānaṁ akusalānaṁ dhammānaṁ paṭighātāya … gihīnaṁ anukampāya, pāpicchānaṁ bhikkhūnaṁ pakkhupacchedāya … appasannānaṁ pasādāya, pasannānaṁ bhiyyobhāvāya … saddhammaṭṭhitiyā, vinayānuggahāya.
These are the two reasons why the Realized One laid down the settlement of a disciplinary matter by covering over with grass for his disciples.” Ime kho, bhikkhave, dve atthavase paṭicca tathāgatena sāvakānaṁ tiṇavatthārako paññatto”ti.
