[निशीथसूत्र गया है। किन्तु इन सूत्रों की चूणि व भाष्य में तो उपर्युक्त क्रम को ही स्वीकार किया गया है । फिर भी निशीथ के सभी प्रकाशनों में "नितियस्स" के बाद “संसत्तस्स" के सूत्र हैं । जो परम्परा से चली आई भूल मात्र है, ऐसा समझकर भाष्यसम्मत क्रम स्वीकार किया है।
पासत्था आदि की व्याख्या करते हुए संयमविपरीत जितनी प्रवृत्तियों का यहां कथन किया गया है, उनका विशेष परिस्थितिवश अपवाद रूप में गीतार्थ या गीतार्थ की नेश्राय से सेवन किया जाने पर तथा उनकी श्रद्धा प्ररूपणा आगम के अनुसार रहने पर एवं उस अपवाद स्थिति से मुक्त होते ही प्रायश्चित्त लेकर शुद्ध संयम अाराधना में पहुँचने की लगन (हार्दिक अभिलाषा) रहने पर वह पासत्था आदि नहीं कहा जाता है । किन्तु प्रतिसेवी निग्रंथ कहा जाता है ।
शुद्ध संस्कारों के अभाव में, संयम के प्रति सजग न रहने से, अकारण दोष सेवन से, स्वच्छंद मनोवृत्ति से, आगमोक्त आचार के प्रति निष्ठा न होने से, निषिद्ध प्रवृत्तियाँ चालू रखने से तथा प्रवृत्ति सुधारने व प्रायश्चित्त ग्रहण का लक्ष्य न होने से, उन सभी दूषित प्रवृत्तियों को करने वाले 'पासत्था' आदि कहे जाते हैं ।
__इन पासत्था आदि का स्वतंत्र गच्छ भी हो सकता है, कहीं वे अकेले-अकेले भी हो सकते हैं। उद्यत विहारी गच्छ में रहते हुए भी कुछ भिक्षु या कोई भिक्षु व्यक्तिगत दोषों से पासत्था प्रादि हो सकते हैं तथा पासत्था आदि के गच्छ में भी कोई कोई शुद्धाचारी हो सकता है। यथार्थ निर्णय तो स्वयं की आत्मा या सर्वज्ञ सर्वदर्शी ही कर सकते हैं ।
पासत्था आदि के इन लक्षणों के ज्ञाता होकर संयमसाधना के साधकों को दूषित प्रवृत्तियों से सावधान रहना चाहिये। सचित्त-लिप्त हस्तादि से पाहार ग्रहण करने का प्रायश्चित्त

The Nishītha Sūtra has been lost. However, the commentary and explanation of these Sūtras accept the above order. Still, in all publications of Nishītha, the Sūtras of "Sansattass" are after "Nitiyass". This is considered a mistake that has been passed down through tradition, and the order as per the commentary has been accepted.

While explaining Pasatthā etc., the mention of all the tendencies contrary to restraint, if consumed as an exception due to special circumstances, or for the sake of a song, or in accordance with the Shraddha Prarūpaṇā Āgama, and if they are free from that exceptional situation, and if there is a desire to reach pure restraint by performing atonement, then they are not called Pasatthā etc. But they are called Pratisevī Nigrantha.

Those who engage in all these corrupt tendencies are called 'Pasatthā' etc. due to the lack of pure conduct, not being vigilant towards restraint, consuming faults without reason, having a free-flowing mind, not being faithful to the conduct mentioned in the Āgama, continuing prohibited tendencies, and not having the goal of improving tendencies and accepting atonement.

These Pasatthā etc. can have their own independent Gachchha, or they can be alone. Even while staying in the Udyata Viharī Gachchha, some monks or a monk can become Pasatthā etc. due to individual faults, and even in the Gachchha of Pasatthā etc., some can be pure-conduct. The true judgment can only be made by one's own soul or by the omniscient and all-seeing.

Knowing these characteristics of Pasatthā etc., those who practice restraint should be careful of corrupt tendencies.
