PÂTIMOKKHA.
PÂKITTIYA DHAMMÂ.
The PÂKittika" Rules. Now here, venerable Sirs, the ninety-two Pâkittiya Rules (Rules regarding matters requiring expiation) come into recitation.
1. There is Pâkittiya in a deliberate lie. 2. There is Pâkittiya in abusive language. 3. There is Pâkittiya in slander of a Bhikkhu.
4. Whatsoever Bhikkhu shall cause one not received into the higher grade (of the Order?) to recite the Dhamma clause by clause 3—that is a Pâkittiya,
5. Whatsoever Bhikkhu shall, for more than two or three nights, lie down (to sleep) in the same place with one not received into the higher grade (of the Order)—that is a Pâkittiya.
6. Whatsoever Bhikkhu shall lie down (to sleep) in the same place with a woman—that is a Pâkittiya*.
7. Whatsoever Bhikkhu shall preach the Dhamma, in more than five or six words, to a woman.
1 That is, 'requiring repentance.' Compare the Sanskrit terms Prayaskittika and Prâya skittîya.
? Literally, one who has not received the upasam padâ.'
3 Anupasampannam padaso dhammam va keyya. This rule is directed against a wrong method of teaching the Dhamma to a Sâmanera. See the extracts from the Old Commentary, and from the Samanta-Pâsâdikâ, given by Minayeff on p. 84. Read however in the second line osâpenti for âsâpenti; and then go on anvakkharam nâma, rûpam anikkan ti vukkamâno ruppan ti opâteti: anuvyañganam nâma, rûpam anikkan ti vukkamâno vedana anikkâ ti saddam nikkhâreti, &c.
