IX, 3, 3. ON EXCLUSION FROM THE PÂTIMOKKHA.
309
Pâtimokkha which are legal ? [Same as the last, " with good ground.”]
And which are the six kinds of inhibition of the Pâtimokkha which are illegal ? When one inhibits the Pâtimokkha for an offence against morality. ... conduct . . . . doctrine . . . . without ground, the offence being one of omission--when one inhibits the Pâtimokkha for an offence against morality. ...conduct .... doctrine .... without ground, the offence being one of commission. These are the six, &c.
‘And which are the six kinds of inhibition of the Pâtimokkha which are legal ? [Same as the last, “with good ground."]
And which are the seven kinds of inhibition of the Pâtimokkha which are illegal? When one inhibits the Pâtimokkha for a Pârâgika, or for a Samghadisesa, or for a Thullakkaya, or for a Pâkittiya, or for a Pátidesaniya, or for a Dukkata, or for a Dubbhâsita, and each of them without ground. These are the seven kinds, &c.
"And which are the seven kinds of inhibition of the Pâtimokkha which are legal ? [Same as the last, "with good ground."]
And which are the eight kinds of inhibition of the Pâtimokkha which are illegal ? [The same as the six, adding “offence against the right means of livelihood."]
The paragraph is repeated in the section full for each of these cases. · Kata .... a kata .... kata kata we have rendered here
as offence of omission-of commission--of both, as seems imperatively demanded by the context. Buddhaghosa, however, says, Akatåyå ti tena puggalena så vipatti kata va hotu akata và pâtimokkha-thapanakassa sañña amQlika-vasena amQlika hoti. Katakata ya ti katañ ka akatan ka ubhayam gahetvà vuttam.
