Tena samayena buddho bhagavā sāvatthiyaṁ viharati jetavane anāthapiṇḍikassa ārāme.
At one time when the Buddha was staying at Sāvatthī in Anāthapiṇḍika’s Monastery,
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.1.2
Tena kho pana samayena chabbaggiyā bhikkhuniyo chattupāhanaṁ dhārenti.
the nuns from the group of six used sunshades and sandals.
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.1.3
Manussā ujjhāyanti khiyyanti vipācenti—
People complained and criticized them,
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.1.4
“kathañhi nāma bhikkhuniyo chattupāhanaṁ dhāressanti, seyyathāpi gihiniyo kāmabhoginiyo”ti.
“How can nuns use sunshades and sandals? They’re just like householders who indulge in worldly pleasures!”
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.1.5
Assosuṁ kho bhikkhuniyo tesaṁ manussānaṁ ujjhāyantānaṁ khiyyantānaṁ vipācentānaṁ.
The nuns heard the complaints of those people.
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.1.6
Yā tā bhikkhuniyo appicchā …pe… tā ujjhāyanti khiyyanti vipācenti—
The nuns of few desires complained and criticized them,
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.1.7
“kathañhi nāma chabbaggiyā bhikkhuniyo chattupāhanaṁ dhāressantī”ti …pe…
“How can the nuns from the group of six use sunshades and sandals?” …
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.1.8
“saccaṁ kira, bhikkhave, chabbaggiyā bhikkhuniyo chattupāhanaṁ dhārentī”ti?
“Is it true, monks, that those nuns do this?”
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.1.9
“Saccaṁ, bhagavā”ti.
“It’s true, sir.”
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.1.10
Vigarahi buddho bhagavā …pe…
The Buddha rebuked them …
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.1.11
kathañhi nāma, bhikkhave, chabbaggiyā bhikkhuniyo chattupāhanaṁ dhāressanti.
“How can the nuns from the group of six do this?
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.1.12
Netaṁ, bhikkhave, appasannānaṁ vā pasādāya …pe…
This will affect people’s confidence …” …
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.1.13
evañca pana, bhikkhave, bhikkhuniyo imaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ uddisantu—
“And, monks, the nuns should recite this training rule like this:
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.1.14.1
“Yā pana bhikkhunī chattupāhanaṁ dhāreyya, pācittiyan”ti.
‘If a nun uses a sunshade and sandals, she commits an offense entailing confession.’”
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.1.15
Evañcidaṁ bhagavatā bhikkhunīnaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ paññattaṁ hoti.
In this way the Buddha laid down this training rule for the nuns.
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.2.1
Tena kho pana samayena aññatarā bhikkhunī gilānā hoti.
Soon afterwards there was a sick nun
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.2.2
Tassā vinā chattupāhanaṁ na phāsu hoti …pe…
who was not comfortable without a sunshade and sandals. …
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.2.3
bhagavato etamatthaṁ ārocesuṁ …pe…
They told the Buddha. The Buddha then had the Sangha gathered and addressed the monks:
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.2.4
anujānāmi, bhikkhave, gilānāya bhikkhuniyā chattupāhanaṁ.
“Monks, I allow a sick nun to use a sunshade and sandals.
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.2.5
Evañca pana, bhikkhave, bhikkhuniyo imaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ uddisantu—
And so, monks, the nuns should recite this training rule like this:
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:1.2.6.1
“Yā pana bhikkhunī agilānā chattupāhanaṁ dhāreyya, pācittiyan”ti.
‘If a nun who is not sick uses a sunshade and sandals, she commits an offense entailing confession.’”
pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:2.1.1

pli-tv-bi-vb-pc84:2.1.4
…pe… ayaṁ imasmiṁ atthe adhippetā bhikkhunīti.
