CONDUCT OF CONFORMISTS
208. That conformist ascetic should not give food, drinks, clothes, pots, etc. to a non-conformist, neither should he be invited to be given, or be offered any services. But this negation should be performed with due respect (and not disrespectfully or in an indifferent way). --So I say.
२०९. धम्ममायाणह, पवेइयं माहणेण मइमया-समणुण्णे समणुण्णस्स असणं वा ४ वत्थं वा ४ पाएज्जा णिमंतेज्जा कुज्जा वेयावडियं परं आढायमाणे। त्ति बेमि।
॥ बीओ उद्देसओ सम्मत्तो॥ २०९. मतिमान् (केवलज्ञानी) महामाहन (श्रमण भगवान महावीर) द्वारा प्ररूपित धर्म को भलीभाँति समझ लो कि समनुज्ञ साधु समनुज्ञ साधु को आदरपूर्वक अशन, पान, खाद्य, स्वाद्य, वस्त्र, पात्र, कम्बल, पाद-प्रोंछन आदि दे, उन्हें देने के लिए मनुहार करे, उनका वैयावृत्य करे। -ऐसा मैं कहता हूँ।
॥ द्वितीय उद्देशक समाप्त ॥ 209. Understand properly the religion propagated by the omniscient great sage (Shraman Bhagavan Mahavir)-a conformist ascetic should give food, drinks, clothes, pots, etc. to another conformist, beseech him to take, and should render him service with due respect. -So I say.
