Atha kho mettiyabhūmajakā bhikkhū—
The monks Mettiya and Bhūmajaka said to each other,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.2
“hiyyo kho, āvuso, amhākaṁ kalyāṇabhattikassa gahapatino bhattaṁ uddiṭṭhaṁ,
“Yesterday we were designated a meal from that householder who offers fine food.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.3
sve amhe kalyāṇabhattiko gahapati saputtadāro upatiṭṭhitvā parivisissati;
Tomorrow he’ll serve us together with his wives and children.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.4
aññe odanena pucchissanti, aññe sūpena pucchissanti, aññe telena pucchissanti, aññe uttaribhaṅgena pucchissantī”ti.
Some of them will offer us rice, some bean curry, some oil, and some special curries.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.5
Te teneva somanassena na cittarūpaṁ rattiyā supiṁsu.
And because they were excited, they did not sleep properly that night.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.6
Atha kho mettiyabhūmajakā bhikkhū pubbaṇhasamayaṁ nivāsetvā pattacīvaraṁ ādāya yena kalyāṇabhattikassa gahapatino nivesanaṁ tenupasaṅkamiṁsu.
The following morning they robed up, took their bowls and robes, and went to the house of that householder.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.7
Addasā kho sā dāsī mettiyabhūmajake bhikkhū dūratova āgacchante. Disvāna koṭṭhake āsanaṁ paññapetvā mettiyabhūmajake bhikkhū etadavoca—
When the female slave saw them coming, she prepared seats in the gatehouse and said to them,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.8
“nisīdatha, bhante”ti.
“Please sit, venerables.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.9
Atha kho mettiyabhūmajakānaṁ bhikkhūnaṁ etadahosi—
They thought,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.10
“nissaṁsayaṁ kho na tāva bhattaṁ siddhaṁ bhavissati. Yathā mayaṁ koṭṭhake nisīdeyyāmā”ti.
“The meal can’t be ready, since we’re given seats in the gatehouse.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.11
Atha kho sā dāsī kaṇājakena bilaṅgadutiyena upagacchi—
She then brought them broken rice and porridge, and said,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.12
“bhuñjatha, bhante”ti.
“Eat, sirs.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.13
“Mayaṁ kho, bhagini, niccabhattikā”ti.
“But, sister, we’ve come for the regular meal.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.14
“Jānāmi, ayyā, niccabhattikāti.
“I know.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.15
Api cāhaṁ hiyyova gahapatinā āṇattā— ‘ye, je, sve bhattikā āgacchanti te koṭṭhake āsanaṁ paññapetvā kaṇājakena bilaṅgadutiyena parivisā’ti.
But yesterday I was told by the head of the household to serve you like this.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.16
Bhuñjatha, bhante”ti.
Please eat.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.17
Atha kho mettiyabhūmajakā bhikkhū—
They said to each other,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.18
“hiyyo kho, āvuso, kalyāṇabhattiko gahapati ārāmaṁ agamāsi dabbassa mallaputtassa santike.
“Yesterday this householder came to the monastery and spoke with Dabba.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.19
Nissaṁsayaṁ kho mayaṁ dabbena mallaputtena gahapatino antare paribhinnā”ti.
Dabba must be responsible for this split between the householder and us.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.20
Te teneva domanassena na cittarūpaṁ bhuñjiṁsu.
And because they were dejected, they did not eat as much as they had intended.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.7.21
Atha kho mettiyabhūmajakā bhikkhū pacchābhattaṁ piṇḍapātapaṭikkantā ārāmaṁ gantvā pattacīvaraṁ paṭisāmetvā bahārāmakoṭṭhake saṅghāṭipallatthikāya nisīdiṁsu tuṇhībhūtā maṅkubhūtā pattakkhandhā adhomukhā pajjhāyantā appaṭibhānā.
When they had eaten their meal and returned from almsround, they put their bowls and robes away and squatted on their heels outside the monastery gatehouse, using their upper robes as a back-and-knee strap. They were silent and humiliated, with shoulders drooping and heads down, glum and speechless.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.1
Atha kho mettiyā bhikkhunī yena mettiyabhūmajakā bhikkhū tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā mettiyabhūmajake bhikkhū etadavoca—
Just then the nun Mettiyā came to them and said,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.2
“vandāmi, ayyā”ti.
“My respectful greetings to you, venerables.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.3
Evaṁ vutte, mettiyabhūmajakā bhikkhū nālapiṁsu.
But they did not respond.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.4
Dutiyampi kho …pe…
A second time
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.5
tatiyampi kho mettiyā bhikkhunī mettiyabhūmajake bhikkhū etadavoca—
and a third time she said
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.6
“vandāmi, ayyā”ti.
the same thing,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.7
Tatiyampi kho mettiyabhūmajakā bhikkhū nālapiṁsu.
but they still did not respond.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.8
“Kyāhaṁ ayyānaṁ aparajjhāmi?
“Have I done something wrong?
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.9
Kissa maṁ ayyā nālapantī”ti?
Why don’t you respond?”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.10
“Tathā hi pana tvaṁ, bhagini, amhe dabbena mallaputtena viheṭhīyamāne ajjhupekkhasī”ti?
“It’s because we’ve been badly treated by Dabba the Mallian, and you’re not taking an interest.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.11
“Kyāhaṁ, ayyā, karomī”ti?
“But what can I do?”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.12
“Sace kho tvaṁ, bhagini, iccheyyāsi ajjeva bhagavā dabbaṁ mallaputtaṁ nāsāpeyyā”ti.
“If you like, you could make the Buddha expel Dabba.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.13
“Kyāhaṁ, ayyā, karomi, kiṁ mayā sakkā kātun”ti?
“And how can I do that?”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.14
“Ehi tvaṁ, bhagini, yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkama; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṁ evaṁ vadehi—
“Go to the Buddha and say,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.15
‘idaṁ, bhante, nacchannaṁ nappatirūpaṁ.
‘Sir, this isn’t proper or appropriate.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.16
Yāyaṁ, bhante, disā abhayā anītikā anupaddavā sāyaṁ disā sabhayā saītikā saupaddavā.
There’s fear, distress, and oppression in this district, where none of these should exist.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.17
Yato nivātaṁ tato savātaṁ.
It’s windy where it should be calm.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.18
Udakaṁ maññe ādittaṁ.
It’s as if water is burning.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.19
Ayyenamhi dabbena mallaputtena dūsitā’”ti.
Venerable Dabba the Mallian has raped me.’”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.20
“Evaṁ, ayyā”ti kho mettiyā bhikkhunī mettiyabhūmajakānaṁ bhikkhūnaṁ paṭissutvā yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṁ abhivādetvā ekamantaṁ aṭṭhāsi.
Saying, “Alright, venerables,” she went to the Buddha, bowed,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.21
Ekamantaṁ ṭhitā kho sā mettiyā bhikkhunī bhagavantaṁ etadavoca—
and repeated what she had been told to say.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.22
“idaṁ, bhante, nacchannaṁ nappatirūpaṁ.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.23
Yāyaṁ, bhante, disā abhayā anītikā anupaddavā sāyaṁ disā sabhayā saītikā saupaddavā.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.24
Yato nivātaṁ tato savātaṁ.

Udakaṁ maññe ādittaṁ.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.8.26
Ayyenamhi dabbena mallaputtena dūsitā”ti.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.1
Atha kho bhagavā etasmiṁ nidāne etasmiṁ pakaraṇe bhikkhusaṅghaṁ sannipātāpetvā āyasmantaṁ dabbaṁ mallaputtaṁ paṭipucchi—
Soon afterwards the Buddha had the Sangha gathered and questioned Dabba:
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.2
“sarasi tvaṁ, dabba, evarūpaṁ kattā yathāyaṁ bhikkhunī āhā”ti?
“Dabba, do you remember doing as the nun Mettiyā says?”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.3
“Yathā maṁ, bhante, bhagavā jānātī”ti.
“Sir, you know what I’m like.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.4
Dutiyampi kho bhagavā …pe…
A second and
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.5
tatiyampi kho bhagavā āyasmantaṁ dabbaṁ mallaputtaṁ etadavoca—
a third time the Buddha asked
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.6
“sarasi tvaṁ, dabba, evarūpaṁ kattā yathāyaṁ bhikkhunī āhā”ti?
the same question
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.7
“Yathā maṁ, bhante, bhagavā jānātī”ti.
and got the same response.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.8
“Na kho, dabba, dabbā evaṁ nibbeṭhenti.
He then said, “Dabba, the Dabbas don’t give such evasive answers.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.9
Sace tayā kataṁ katanti vadehi,
If it was done by you, say so;
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.10
sace tayā akataṁ akatanti vadehī”ti.
if it wasn’t, then say that.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.11
“Yato ahaṁ, bhante, jāto nābhijānāmi supinantenapi methunaṁ dhammaṁ paṭisevitā, pageva jāgaro”ti.
“Since I was born, sir, I don’t recall having sexual intercourse even in a dream, let alone when awake.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.12
Atha kho bhagavā bhikkhū āmantesi—
The Buddha addressed the monks:
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.13
“tena hi, bhikkhave, mettiyaṁ bhikkhuniṁ nāsetha.
“Well then, monks, expel the nun Mettiyā,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.14
Ime ca bhikkhū anuyuñjathā”ti.
and call these monks to account.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.15
Idaṁ vatvā bhagavā uṭṭhāyāsanā vihāraṁ pāvisi.
The Buddha then got up from his seat and entered his dwelling.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.16
Atha kho te bhikkhū mettiyaṁ bhikkhuniṁ nāsesuṁ.
When the monks had expelled the nun Mettiyā,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.17
Atha kho mettiyabhūmajakā bhikkhū te bhikkhū etadavocuṁ—
the monks Mettiya and Bhūmajaka said to them,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.18
“māvuso, mettiyaṁ bhikkhuniṁ nāsetha.
“Don’t expel the nun Mettiyā;
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.19
Na sā kiñci aparajjhati.
she hasn’t done anything wrong.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.20
Amhehi sā ussāhitā kupitehi anattamanehi cāvanādhippāyehī”ti.
She was urged on by us. We were angry and displeased, and trying to make Dabba give up the monastic life.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.21
“Kiṁ pana tumhe, āvuso, āyasmantaṁ dabbaṁ mallaputtaṁ amūlakena pārājikena dhammena anuddhaṁsethā”ti?
“But did you groundlessly charge Venerable Dabba with an offense entailing expulsion?”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.22
“Evamāvuso”ti.
“Yes.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.23
Ye te bhikkhū appicchā …pe… te ujjhāyanti khiyyanti vipācenti—
The monks of few desires … complained and criticized them,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.24
“kathañhi nāma mettiyabhūmajakā bhikkhū āyasmantaṁ dabbaṁ mallaputtaṁ amūlakena pārājikena dhammena anuddhaṁsessantī”ti.
“How could the monks Mettiya and Bhūmajaka groundlessly charge Venerable Dabba with an offense entailing expulsion?”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.25
Atha kho te bhikkhū mettiyabhūmajake bhikkhū anekapariyāyena vigarahitvā bhagavato etamatthaṁ ārocesuṁ …pe…
They rebuked those monks in many ways and then told the Buddha. Soon afterwards he had the Sangha gathered and questioned those monks:
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.26
“saccaṁ kira tumhe, bhikkhave, dabbaṁ mallaputtaṁ amūlakena pārājikena dhammena anuddhaṁsethā”ti?
“Is it true, monks, that you did this?”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.27
“Saccaṁ, bhagavā”ti.
“It’s true, sir.”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.28
Vigarahi buddho bhagavā …pe…
The Buddha rebuked them …
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.29
“kathañhi nāma tumhe, moghapurisā, dabbaṁ mallaputtaṁ amūlakena pārājikena dhammena anuddhaṁsessatha.
“Foolish men, how could you do this?
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.30
Netaṁ, moghapurisā, appasannānaṁ vā pasādāya …pe…
This will affect people’s confidence …” …
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.31
evañca pana, bhikkhave, imaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ uddiseyyātha—
“And, monks, this training rule should be recited like this:
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.32.1
“Yo pana bhikkhu bhikkhuṁ duṭṭho doso appatīto amūlakena pārājikena dhammena anuddhaṁseyya—‘appeva nāma naṁ imamhā brahmacariyā cāveyyan’ti,
‘If a monk who is angry and displeased groundlessly charges a monk with an offense entailing expulsion, aiming to make him leave the monastic life,
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:1.9.33
tato aparena samayena samanuggāhīyamāno vā asamanuggāhīyamāno vā amūlakañceva taṁ adhikaraṇaṁ hoti bhikkhu ca dosaṁ patiṭṭhāti, saṅghādiseso”ti.
and then after some time, whether he is questioned or not, it is clear that the legal issue is groundless, and he admits to his ill will, he commits an offense entailing suspension.’”
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:2.1
Yo panāti
A:
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:2.2
yo yādiso …pe…

…pe… ayaṁ imasmiṁ atthe adhippeto bhikkhūti.
… The monk who has been given the full ordination by a unanimous Sangha through a legal procedure consisting of one motion and three announcements that is irreversible and fit to stand—this sort of monk is meant in this case.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:2.5
Bhikkhunti

Appatītoti
Displeased:
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:2.10
tena ca kopena tena ca dosena tāya ca anattamanatāya tāya ca anabhiraddhiyā appatīto hoti.
because of that upset, that ill will, that dissatisfaction, and that discontent, he is displeased.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:2.11
Amūlakaṁ nāma

Pārājikena dhammenāti
With an offense entailing expulsion:

catunnaṁ aññatarena.
with one of the four.

- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:2.17
Appeva nāma naṁ imamhā brahmacariyā cāveyyanti
To make him leave the monastic life:
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:2.18
bhikkhubhāvā cāveyyaṁ, samaṇadhammā cāveyyaṁ, sīlakkhandhā cāveyyaṁ, tapoguṇā cāveyyaṁ.
to make him leave the monkhood, leave the state of a monastic, leave his morality, leave the virtue of monasticism.
- pli-tv-bu-vb-ss8:2.19
Tato aparena samayenāti
And then after some time:
