**Agam Sutra 39, Chhed Sutra-5, 'Mahanishith'**
Study/Purpose/Sutra Number is appropriate and one is not appropriate. So, O Bhagvant! How many are there who are generally prohibited and who are not prohibited? O Gautam! There is one who is against and one who is not against. The one who is against is prohibited, and the one who is not against is not prohibited. O Bhagvant! Who is against and who is not?
O Gautam! The one who is worthy of being condemned in that country, in which countries he is condemned, in which country he is prohibited, he is against in that country. The one who is not condemnable in any country, he is not prohibited in that country, he is not against in that country. O Gautam! There, in which countries he is considered against, do not give him pravrajya. Whoever is not considered against in which country, they should be given pravrajya.
O Bhagvant! In which country is who against and who is not considered against? O Gautam! If any man or woman kills or causes to be killed, troubles or causes trouble, a Shraman, a Shravak, a mother, a father, a brother, a sister, a nephew, a son, a grandson, a daughter, a niece, a daughter-in-law, a son-in-law, a wife, a partner, a gotra, a caste, a non-caste, a relative, a poor person, a native, a foreigner, an Arya, a Mlechchha, out of attachment or hatred, repentance, anger, greed, then he is unfit for pravrajya. He is a sinner, condemned, blameworthy, worthy of being condemned. He is prohibited from initiation. He is an obstacle, a hindrance, a bringer of disgrace, a bringer of ill-repute, he has found the wrong path, he is immoral, even in the state he is wicked, similarly defeated by some other vice, he is very complex, very hungry, he is a thief, his caste, family, character and nature are unknown, he has a body afflicted with many diseases and pains, and he is greedy for taste, he is a great sleeper, he is a storyteller, he is a laughter, a play, a lust, a non-believer, a master, a commander, and he is very arrogant, he is of a very low class or a low caste, he is born in a womb against the truth or against the rule, if any Acharya, Gachchhanayak, Geetarth or Ageetarth, who is endowed with the qualities of an Acharya or who is endowed with the qualities of a Gachchhanayak, who is going to be an Acharya or who is going to be a Gachchhanayak, gives pravrajya to that (disciple) out of greed or pride even within two hundred yojanas, then O Gautam! He is a violator of the rules of preaching, a breaker of preaching, a breaker of pilgrimage, a breaker of the Sangha.
And then he is equal to the one who is defeated by vice, he does not see the loss of the afterlife, he is a promoter of immorality, he is a doer of evil. He is a sinner, a great sinner, a great sinner among the great sinners. O Gautam! Indeed, consider him to be a hypocrite, a demon, a fierce, a cruel, a false-sighted.
**Sutra-825**
O Bhagvant! Why is it said so? O Gautam! There is the path of liberation in conduct, but there is no path of liberation in misconduct. Why is it said so? O Bhagvant! What are the conducts and what are the misconducts? O Gautam! To behave according to the command of the Lord is conduct, to behave against his command is called misconduct. In it, whatever is against the command is to be completely avoided in solitude. And then, whatever is not against the command is completely worthy of being practiced in solitude. And O Gautam! If anyone is found who will contradict this Shramanapan, then completely abandon him.
**Sutra-826**
O Bhagvant! How to test him? O Gautam! Whoever is a man or woman who desires to embrace Shramanapan (from the hardship of this initiation) trembles or shakes, sits down, vomits, desires his own or others' community, speaks of non-belief, makes a relationship, starts walking towards him or observes him, see in front of them
