- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.1.1
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-pc85:1.1.2
Tena kho pana samayena chabbaggiyā bhikkhuniyo yānena yāyanti.
the nuns from the group of six were traveling in vehicles.
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.1.3
Manussā ujjhāyanti khiyyanti vipācenti—
People complained and criticized them,
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.1.4
“kathañhi nāma bhikkhuniyo yānena yāyissanti, seyyathāpi gihiniyo kāmabhoginiyo”ti.
“How can the nuns travel in a vehicle? They’re just like householders who indulge in worldly pleasures!”
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.1.5
Assosuṁ kho bhikkhuniyo tesaṁ manussānaṁ ujjhāyantānaṁ khiyyantānaṁ vipācentānaṁ.
The nuns heard the complaints of those people.
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.1.6
Yā tā bhikkhuniyo appicchā …pe… tā ujjhāyanti khiyyanti vipācenti—
The nuns of few desires complained and criticized them,
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.1.7
“kathañhi nāma chabbaggiyā bhikkhuniyo yānena yāyissantī”ti …pe…
“How can the nuns from the group of six travel in a vehicle?” …
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.1.8
“saccaṁ kira, bhikkhave, chabbaggiyā bhikkhuniyo yānena yāyantī”ti?
“Is it true, monks, that those nuns do this?”
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.1.9
“Saccaṁ, bhagavā”ti.
“It’s true, sir.”
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.1.10
Vigarahi buddho bhagavā …pe…
The Buddha rebuked them …
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.1.11
kathañhi nāma, bhikkhave, chabbaggiyā bhikkhuniyo yānena yāyissanti.
“How can the nuns from the group of six do this?
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.1.12
Netaṁ, bhikkhave, appasannānaṁ vā pasādāya …pe…
This will affect people’s confidence …” …
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.1.13
evañca pana, bhikkhave, bhikkhuniyo imaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ uddisantu—
“And, monks, the nuns should recite this training rule like this:
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.1.14.1
“Yā pana bhikkhunī yānena yāyeyya, pācittiyan”ti.
‘If a nun travels in a vehicle, she commits an offense entailing confession.’”
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.1.15
Evañcidaṁ bhagavatā bhikkhunīnaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ paññattaṁ hoti.
In this way the Buddha laid down this training rule for the nuns.
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.2.1
Tena kho pana samayena aññatarā bhikkhunī gilānā hoti, na sakkoti padasā gantuṁ …pe…
Soon afterwards there was a sick nun who was not able to travel on foot. …
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.2.2
bhagavato etamatthaṁ ārocesuṁ …pe…
They told the Buddha. The Buddha then had the Sangha gathered and addressed the monks:
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.2.3
anujānāmi, bhikkhave, gilānāya bhikkhuniyā yānaṁ.
“Monks, I allow a sick nun to use a vehicle.
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.2.4
Evañca pana, bhikkhave, bhikkhuniyo imaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ uddisantu—
And so, monks, the nuns should recite this training rule like this:
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:1.2.5.1
“Yā pana bhikkhunī agilānā yānena yāyeyya, pācittiyan”ti.
‘If a nun who is not sick travels in a vehicle, she commits an offense entailing confession.’”
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:2.1.1

Nun:
- pli-tv-bi-vb-pc85:2.1.4

… The nun who has been given the full ordination in unanimity by both Sanghas through a legal procedure consisting of one motion and three announcements that is irreversible and fit to stand—this sort of nun is meant in this case.
