जहा णं अम्हं पि पायरिया उवज्झाया वासाणं स-वीसइ-राए मासे विइक्कते वासावासं पज्जोसविति तहा णं अभ्हे वि वासाणं स-वीसइ-राए मासे विइक्कते वासावासं पज्जोसवेम । अंतरा वि य से कप्पइ पज्जोसवित्तए णो से कप्पइ तं रयणि उवायणावित्तए ।

Just as the preceptors and teachers perform the parjuşanā rites during their monsoon sojourn after the expiry of one month and 20 nights of the rainy season, so do we perform the parjuşaņā rites after the expiry of one month and 20 nights of the rainy season. (The commencement of) parjuşaņā rites is permitted prior, but not posterior, to that night.
वासावासं पज्जोसवियाणं कप्पइ णिग्गंठाण वा णिग्गंठीण वा सव्वनो समंता स-कोसं जोयणं उग्गहं प्रोगिण्हित्ता णं चिट्ठिउं अहा-लंदं अवि उग्गहे । ९
Monks and nuns performing the par jusaņā rites during their monsoon sojourn are permitted to regard their residence as extending over a krośa (about 2 miles) added to a yojana (about 3 miles) all around. For depositing excreta, they are permitted to move as far as may be necessary.
वासावासं पज्जोसवियाणं कप्पइ णिग्गंठाण वा णिग्गंठीण वा सव्वग्रो समंता . स-कोसं जोयणं भिक्खायरियाए गंतुं पडिणियत्तए । On the whole, monks and nuns, performing the parjuşaņā rites during their monsoon sojourn, are permitted to go and come back, for the sake of begging, upto a krośa added to a yojana all around.
10 जथ्थ णं णइ णिच्चोयगा णिच्च-संदणा णो से कप्पइ सव्वनो समंता स-कोसं जोयणं भिक्खायरियाए गंतुं पडिणियत्तए ।
If there is (in their way) a river with perennial water supply and perennial flow, then they are not allowed to go and come
