तेणं कालेणं तेणं समएणं समणे भगवं महावीरे वासाणं स-वीसइ-राए मासे विइक्कते वासावासं पज्जोसवेइ । से केणठेणं भंते ! एवं वुच्चइः समणे भगवं महावीरे वासाणं स-वीसइ-राए मासे विइक्कंते वासावासं पज्जोसवेइ ?
In that period, at that time, śramaņa Bhagavån Mahāvīra performed the parjuşaņā rites during the monsoon sojourn when a month and 20 nights of the rainy season had elapsed.
-Bhante ! In what sense is it said that Sramana Bhagavān Mahavira performed the parjuşaņā rites during the monsoon sojourn when one month and 20 nights of the rainy season had elapsed? 1
जो णं पाएणं अगारिणं अगाराई कडियाइं उक्कंपियाई छण्णाई लित्ताई घट्टाइं मट्ठाइं संपधूमियाइं खामोदगाइं खायणिद्धमणाई अप्पणो अट्ठाए कडाइं परिभुत्ताइं परिणामियाई भवंति से तेणढणं एवं वुच्चइः समणे भगवं महावीरे वासाणं स-वीसइ-राए मासे विइक्कंते वासावासं पज्जोसवेइ ।
Since (about this time) the householders usually repair their houses, white-wash them, thatch them, smear them, level them, smoothen them, perfume them, dig pits and drains in them, furnish their houses, render them comfortable and rid them of all defects and inconveniences, so has it been said that Sramaņa Bhagavān Mahāvīra performed the parjuşaņā rites during the monsoon sojourn when one month and 20 nights of the rainy seasons had elapsed.

जहा णं समणे भगवं महावीरे वासाणं स-वीसइ-राए मासे विइक्कंते वासावासं पज्जोसवेइ तहा णं गणहरा वि वासाणं स-वीसइ-राए मासे विइक्कते
वासावासं पज्जोसविति । Just as Sramaņa Bhagavān Mahāvira performed the parjuşaņā rites during the monsoon sojourn after the expiry of one month and 20 nights of the rainy season, so did the ganadharas perform the parjuşaņā rites on the expiry of one month and 20 nights of the rainy season.
