1.1.0Origin story

1.1.1Tena samayena buddho bhagavā sāvatthiyaṁ viharati jetavane anāthapiṇḍikassa ārāme.At one time the Buddha was staying at Sāvatthī in the Jeta Grove, Anāthapiṇḍika’s Monastery.1.1.2Tena kho pana samayena āyasmā udāyī araññe viharati.At that time Venerable Udāyī was staying in the wilderness.1.1.3Tassāyasmato vihāro abhirūpo hoti dassanīyo pāsādiko, majjhegabbho, samantāpariyāgāro,He had a beautiful dwelling with a room in the middle and corridors on all sides.1.1.4supaññattaṁ mañcapīṭhaṁ bhisibibbohanaṁ,The bed and bench were nicely made up,1.1.5pānīyaṁ paribhojanīyaṁ sūpaṭṭhitaṁ,and the water for drinking and the water for washing were ready for use.1.1.6pariveṇaṁ susammaṭṭhaṁ.The yards were well swept.¹1.1.7Bahū manussā āyasmato udāyissa vihārapekkhakā āgacchanti.Many people came to see Udāyī’s dwelling,

1.1.8Aññataropi brāhmaṇo sapajāpatiko yenāyasmā udāyī tenupasaṅkami; upasaṅkamitvā āyasmantaṁ udāyiṁ etadavoca—among them a certain brahmin and his wife. They approached Udāyī and said,1.1.9“icchāma mayaṁ bhoto udāyissa vihāraṁ pekkhitun”ti.“Venerable, we would like to see your dwelling.”

1.1.10“Tena hi, brāhmaṇa, pekkhassū”ti,“Well then, brahmin, please do.”

1.1.11avāpuraṇaṁ ādāya ghaṭikaṁ ugghāṭetvā kavāṭaṁ paṇāmetvā vihāraṁ pāvisi.Udāyī took the key, lifted the latch, opened the door, and entered the dwelling.1.1.12Sopi kho brāhmaṇo āyasmato udāyissa piṭṭhito pāvisi.The brahmin entered after him1.1.13Sāpi kho brāhmaṇī tassa brāhmaṇassa piṭṭhito pāvisi.and then the brahmin lady.1.1.14Atha kho āyasmā udāyī ekacce vātapāne vivaranto ekacce vātapāne thakento gabbhaṁ anuparigantvā piṭṭhito āgantvā tassā brāhmaṇiyā aṅgamaṅgāni parāmasi.Opening some windows and closing others, Udāyī walked around the inner room and came up behind the brahmin lady, touching her all over.1.1.15Atha kho so brāhmaṇo āyasmatā udāyinā saddhiṁ paṭisammoditvā agamāsi.Then the brahmin thanked Udāyī and left.

1.1.16Atha kho so brāhmaṇo attamano attamanavācaṁ nicchāresi—And he expressed his delight,1.1.17“uḷārā ime samaṇā sakyaputtiyā ye ime evarūpe araññe viharanti.“These Sakyan monastics who live in the wilderness are superb.1.1.18Bhavampi udāyī uḷāro yo evarūpe araññe viharatī”ti.Venerable Udāyī is superb!”

1.1.19PTS 3.120Evaṁ vutte, sā brāhmaṇī taṁ brāhmaṇaṁ etadavoca—But the brahmin lady said,1.1.20“kuto tassa uḷārattatā.“What’s superb about him?1.1.21Yatheva me tvaṁ aṅgamaṅgāni parāmasi evameva me samaṇo udāyī aṅgamaṅgāni parāmasī”ti.He touched me all over just like you do.”

1.1.22Atha kho so brāhmaṇo ujjhāyati khiyyati vipāceti—The brahmin then complained and criticized him,1.1.23“alajjino ime samaṇā sakyaputtiyā dussīlā musāvādino.“These Sakyan monastics are shameless and immoral liars.1.1.24Ime hi nāma dhammacārino samacārino brahmacārino saccavādino sīlavanto kalyāṇadhammā paṭijānissanti.They claim to have integrity, to be celibate and of good conduct, to be truthful, moral, and good.1.1.25Natthi imesaṁ sāmaññaṁ natthi imesaṁ brahmaññaṁ, naṭṭhaṁ imesaṁ sāmaññaṁ naṭṭhaṁ imesaṁ brahmaññaṁ,But they don’t have the good character of a monastic or a brahmin.1.1.26kuto imesaṁ sāmaññaṁ kuto imesaṁ brahmaññaṁ, apagatā ime sāmaññā apagatā ime brahmaññā.They’ve lost the plot!1.1.27Kathañhi nāma samaṇo udāyī mama bhariyāya aṅgamaṅgāni parāmasissati.How could the ascetic Udāyī touch my wife all over?1.1.28Na hi sakkā kulitthīhi kuladhītāhi kulakumārīhi kulasuṇhāhi kuladāsīhi ārāmaṁ vā vihāraṁ vā gantuṁ.It’s not possible to go to a monastery or a monk’s dwelling with a wife from a respectable family, or with a daughter, a girl, a daughter-in-law, or a female slave from a respectable family.1.1.29Sace kulitthiyo kuladhītaro kulakumāriyo kulasuṇhāyo kuladāsiyo ārāmaṁ vā vihāraṁ vā gaccheyyuṁ, tāpi samaṇā sakyaputtiyā dūseyyun”ti.If you do, the Sakyan monastics might molest them.”

1.2.1Assosuṁ kho bhikkhu tassa brāhmaṇassa ujjhāyantassa khiyyantassa vipācentassa.The monks heard the criticism of that brahmin.1.2.2Ye te bhikkhū appicchā …pe… te ujjhāyanti khiyyanti vipācenti—The monks of few desires complained and criticized Udāyī,1.2.3“kathañhi nāma āyasmā udāyī mātugāmena saddhiṁ kāyasaṁsaggaṁ samāpajjissatī”ti.“How could Venerable Udāyī make physical contact with a woman?”

1.2.4Atha kho te bhikkhū āyasmantaṁ udāyiṁ anekapariyāyena vigarahitvā bhagavato etamatthaṁ ārocesuṁ.They told the Buddha.1.2.5Atha kho bhagavā etasmiṁ nidāne etasmiṁ pakaraṇe bhikkhusaṅghaṁ sannipātāpetvā āyasmantaṁ udāyiṁ paṭipucchi—He then had the Sangha gathered and questioned Udāyī:

1.2.6“saccaṁ kira tvaṁ, udāyi, mātugāmena saddhiṁ kāyasaṁsaggaṁ samāpajjasī”ti?“Is it true, Udāyī, that you did this?”

1.2.7“Saccaṁ, bhagavā”ti.“It’s true, sir.”

1.2.8Vigarahi buddho bhagavā—The Buddha rebuked him,1.2.9“ananucchavikaṁ, moghapurisa, ananulomikaṁ appatirūpaṁ assāmaṇakaṁ akappiyaṁ akaraṇīyaṁ.“Foolish man, it’s not suitable, it’s not proper, it’s not worthy of a monastic, it’s not allowable, it’s not to be done.1.2.10Kathañhi nāma tvaṁ, moghapurisa, mātugāmena saddhiṁ kāyasaṁsaggaṁ samāpajjissasi.How could you do this?1.2.11Nanu mayā, moghapurisa, anekapariyāyena virāgāya dhammo desito no sarāgāya …pe…Haven’t I given many teachings for the sake of dispassion, not for the sake of passion …1.2.12kāmapariḷāhānaṁ vūpasamo akkhāto.the stilling of the fevers of worldly pleasures?1.2.13Netaṁ, moghapurisa, appasannānaṁ vā pasādāya …pe…This will affect people’s confidence …” …1.2.14evañca pana, bhikkhave, imaṁ sikkhāpadaṁ uddiseyyātha—“And, monks, this training rule should be recited like this:

1.2.15.0Final ruling

1.2.15.1“Yo pana bhikkhu otiṇṇo vipariṇatena cittena mātugāmena saddhiṁ kāyasaṁsaggaṁ samāpajjeyya hatthaggāhaṁ vā veṇiggāhaṁ vā aññatarassa vā aññatarassa vā aṅgassa parāmasanaṁ, saṅghādiseso”ti.‘If a monk, overcome by lust and with a distorted mind, makes physical contact with a woman—holding her hand or hair, or touching any part of her body—he commits an offense entailing suspension.’”
