The Nuns’ Rules
Bhikkhunī Pātimokkha
The Bhikkhunī-pātimokkha, “the Monastic Code for nuns”, contains the core rules of the monastic life in the form of a long list without any explanatory material. There are 311 such rules for the nuns, grouped according to the type of offense incurred for breaking the rule, with the exception of the last group, the adhikaraṇasamathadhamma (“the principles for resolving legal issues”), which are principles to be applied rather than rules in the strict sense. At present the Pātimokkha is only found embedded in the Suttavibhaṅga (“the Analysis of the Pātimokkha rules”), in which each rule is surrounded by explanatory material. Originally, however, the Pātimokkha probably existed as an independent text, known as the Pātimokkha-sutta. This can be seen from the fact that rules sometimes refer to other rules that immediately precede them, a connection that is now severed since the Suttavibhaṅga material separates the rules from each other.

Translator’s notes
- ↩ pli-tv-bi-pm:4.1
There is no ti in the Pali at the end of the paragraph, but quotation marks seem required because there is a shift of speaker.
- ↩ pli-tv-bi-pm:5.1
This is where the recitation of the Pātimokkha begins, thus the open quote. The end quote is found at the end of the recitation. There are headings in between that should not be included within the quotes. To simplify the editing process, I have not separated these out.
- ↩ pli-tv-bi-pm:7.5
I have ignored the ti after dhārayāmi here and below. It is not found in all versions of the Pātimokkha, and it does not fit the context.
