0.41. Kassapagottabhikkhuvatthu1. The account of the monk Kassapagotta

1.1.1PTS 1.312Tena samayena buddho bhagavā campāyaṁ viharati gaggarāya pokkharaṇiyā tīre.At one time the Buddha was staying at Campā on the banks of the Gaggarā lotus pond.1.1.2Tena kho pana samayena kāsīsu janapade vāsabhagāmo nāma hoti.At that time in the country of Kāsi there was a village called Vāsabha1.1.3Tattha kassapagotto nāma bhikkhu āvāsiko hoti tantibaddho ussukkaṁ āpanno—with a resident monk called Kassapagotta. He was dedicated to the local monastery,¹1.1.4“kinti anāgatā ca pesalā bhikkhū āgaccheyyuṁ, āgatā ca pesalā bhikkhū phāsu vihareyyuṁ, ayañca āvāso vuddhiṁ viruḷhiṁ vepullaṁ āpajjeyyā”ti.trying to get good monks to come, to help those who had come be comfortable, and to make the local monastery grow and reach maturity.

1.1.5Tena kho pana samayena sambahulā bhikkhū kāsīsu cārikaṁ caramānā yena vāsabhagāmo tadavasaruṁ.At this time a number of monks who were wandering in Kāsi arrived at Vāsabha.1.1.6Addasā kho kassapagotto bhikkhu te bhikkhū dūratova āgacchante, disvāna āsanaṁ paññapesi, pādodakaṁ pādapīṭhaṁ pādakathalikaṁ upanikkhipi, paccuggantvā pattacīvaraṁ paṭiggahesi, pānīyena āpucchi, nahāne ussukkaṁ akāsi, ussukkampi akāsi yāguyā khādanīye bhattasmiṁ.When Kassapagotta saw those monks coming, he prepared seats, and he set out a foot stool, a foot scraper, and water for washing the feet. He then went out to meet them, received their bowls and robes, and asked if they wanted water to drink. He made sure they had a bath, and he helped them get congee, fresh foods, and meals.1.1.7Atha kho tesaṁ āgantukānaṁ bhikkhūnaṁ etadahosi—Those newly-arrived monks thought,1.1.8“bhaddako kho ayaṁ, āvuso, āvāsiko bhikkhu nahāne ussukkaṁ karoti, ussukkampi karoti yāguyā khādanīye bhattasmiṁ.“He’s great, this resident monk, since he helps us with all these things.1.1.9Handa mayaṁ, āvuso, idheva vāsabhagāme nivāsaṁ kappemā”ti.Let’s settle down right here in Vāsabha.”1.1.10Atha kho te āgantukā bhikkhū tattheva vāsabhagāme nivāsaṁ kappesuṁ.And they did just that.

1.2.1Atha kho kassapagottassa bhikkhuno etadahosi—Soon afterwards Kassapagotta thought,1.2.2“yo kho imesaṁ āgantukānaṁ bhikkhūnaṁ āgantukakilamatho so paṭippassaddho.“These monks are now rid of their tiredness from traveling.1.2.3Yepime gocare appakataññuno tedānime gocare pakataññuno.And by now they know where to get alms.1.2.4Dukkaraṁ kho pana parakulesu yāvajīvaṁ ussukkaṁ kātuṁ, viññatti ca manussānaṁ amanāpā.Also, in the long run it’s hard work to seek support from unrelated folk, and people don’t like to be asked.1.2.5Yannūnāhaṁ na ussukkaṁ kareyyaṁ yāguyā khādanīye bhattasmin”ti.Why don’t I stop helping them get congee, fresh foods, and meals?”1.2.6So na ussukkaṁ akāsi yāguyā khādanīye bhattasmiṁ.And he did.

1.2.7PTS 1.313Atha kho tesaṁ āgantukānaṁ bhikkhūnaṁ etadahosi—Those newly-arrived monks considered,1.2.8“pubbe khvāyaṁ, āvuso, āvāsiko bhikkhu nahāne ussukkaṁ akāsi, ussukkampi akāsi yāguyā khādanīye bhattasmiṁ.“Previously this resident monk made sure we got a bath, and he helped us get congee, fresh foods, and meals.1.2.9Sodānāyaṁ na ussukkaṁ karoti yāguyā khādanīye bhattasmiṁ.But now he’s stopped.1.2.10Duṭṭhodānāyaṁ, āvuso, āvāsiko bhikkhu.He’s become hostile, this resident monk.1.2.11Handa mayaṁ, āvuso, āvāsikaṁ bhikkhuṁ ukkhipāmā”ti.Well then, let’s eject him.”

1.3.1Atha kho te āgantukā bhikkhū sannipatitvā kassapagottaṁ bhikkhuṁ etadavocuṁ—Soon afterwards those newly-arrived monks gathered and confronted Kassapagotta with what had happened, adding,1.3.2“pubbe kho tvaṁ, āvuso, nahāne ussukkaṁ karosi, ussukkampi karosi yāguyā khādanīye bhattasmiṁ.1.3.3Sodāni tvaṁ na ussukkaṁ karosi yāguyā khādanīye bhattasmiṁ.1.3.4Āpattiṁ tvaṁ, āvuso, āpanno.“You’ve committed an offense.1.3.5Passasetaṁ āpattin”ti?Do you recognize that offense?”

1.3.6“Natthi me, āvuso, āpatti, yamahaṁ passeyyan”ti.“No. I haven’t committed any offense that I should recognize.”

1.3.7Atha kho te āgantukā bhikkhū kassapagottaṁ bhikkhuṁ āpattiyā adassane ukkhipiṁsu.Those newly-arrived monks then ejected Kassapagotta for not recognizing an offense.

1.3.8Atha kho kassapagottassa bhikkhuno etadahosi—Kassapagotta thought,1.3.9“ahaṁ kho etaṁ na jānāmi ‘āpatti vā esā anāpatti vā, āpanno camhi anāpanno vā, ukkhitto camhi anukkhitto vā, dhammikena vā adhammikena vā, kuppena vā akuppena vā, ṭhānārahena vā aṭṭhānārahena vā’.“I don’t actually know whether this was an offense or not, whether I’ve committed one or not, whether I’ve been ejected or not, whether it was legitimate or not, whether it’s reversible or not, whether it’s fit to stand or not.1.3.10Yannūnāhaṁ campaṁ gantvā bhagavantaṁ etamatthaṁ puccheyyan”ti.Let me go to Campā and ask the Buddha.”

1.4.1Atha kho kassapagotto bhikkhu senāsanaṁ saṁsāmetvā pattacīvaramādāya yena campā tena pakkāmi.He then put his dwelling in order, took his bowl and robe, and set out for Campā.1.4.2Anupubbena yena campā yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkami, upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṁ abhivādetvā ekamantaṁ nisīdi.When he eventually arrived, he went to the Buddha, bowed, and sat down.1.4.3Āciṇṇaṁ kho panetaṁ buddhānaṁ bhagavantānaṁ āgantukehi bhikkhūhi saddhiṁ paṭisammodituṁ.Since it is the custom for Buddhas to greet newly-arrived monks,1.4.4Atha kho bhagavā kassapagottaṁ bhikkhuṁ etadavoca—the Buddha said to Kassapagotta,1.4.5“kacci, bhikkhu, khamanīyaṁ, kacci yāpanīyaṁ,“I hope you’re keeping well, monk, I hope you’re getting by? 1.4.6kacci appakilamathena addhānaṁ āgato,I hope you’re not tired from traveling? 1.4.7kuto ca tvaṁ, bhikkhu, āgacchasī”ti?And where have you come from?”

1.6.1“Anāpatti esā, bhikkhu, nesā āpatti.“Well, that’s not an offense, monk,1.6.2Anāpannosi, nasi āpanno.1.6.3Anukkhittosi, nasi ukkhitto.and you haven’t been ejected.1.6.4Adhammikenāsi kammena ukkhitto kuppena aṭṭhānārahena.You’ve been ejected by an illegitimate legal procedure that’s reversible and unfit to stand.1.6.5Gaccha tvaṁ, bhikkhu, tattheva vāsabhagāme nivāsaṁ kappehī”ti.Go back and stay right there in the village of Vāsabha.”

1.6.6“Evaṁ, bhante”ti kho kassapagotto bhikkhu bhagavato paṭissuṇitvā uṭṭhāyāsanā bhagavantaṁ abhivādetvā padakkhiṇaṁ katvā yena vāsabhagāmo tena pakkāmi.“Yes, sir.” He got up from his seat, bowed down, circumambulated the Buddha with his right side toward him, and set out for Vāsabha.

1.7.1Atha kho tesaṁ āgantukānaṁ bhikkhūnaṁ ahudeva kukkuccaṁ, ahu vippaṭisāro—Soon those newly-arrived monks became anxious and remorseful:1.7.2“alābhā vata no, na vata no lābhā;“It’s truly bad for us1.7.3dulladdhaṁ vata no, na vata no suladdhaṁ, ye mayaṁ suddhaṁ bhikkhuṁ anāpattikaṁ avatthusmiṁ akāraṇe ukkhipimhā.that we have ejected, without reason, a pure monk who hadn’t committed any offense.1.7.4Handa mayaṁ, āvuso, campaṁ gantvā bhagavato santike accayaṁ accayato desemā”ti.Well then, let’s go to Campā and confess our mistake to the Buddha.”

1.7.5Atha kho te āgantukā bhikkhū senāsanaṁ saṁsāmetvā pattacīvaramādāya yena campā tena pakkamiṁsu.They then put their dwellings in order, took their bowls and robes, and set out for Campā.1.7.6Anupubbena yena campā yena bhagavā tenupasaṅkamiṁsu, upasaṅkamitvā bhagavantaṁ abhivādetvā ekamantaṁ nisīdiṁsu.When they eventually arrived, they went to the Buddha, bowed, and sat down.1.7.7Āciṇṇaṁ kho panetaṁ buddhānaṁ bhagavantānaṁ āgantukehi bhikkhūhi saddhiṁ paṭisammodituṁ.Since it is the custom for Buddhas to greet newly-arrived monks,1.7.8Atha kho bhagavā te bhikkhū etadavoca—the Buddha said to them,1.7.9“kacci, bhikkhave, khamanīyaṁ, kacci yāpanīyaṁ,“I hope you’re keeping well, monks, I hope you’re getting by? 1.7.10kaccittha appakilamathena addhānaṁ āgatā,I hope you’re not tired from traveling? 1.7.11kuto ca tumhe, bhikkhave, āgacchathā”ti?And where have you come from?”

1.8.1“Tumhe, bhikkhave, āvāsikaṁ bhikkhuṁ ukkhipitthā”ti?“Are you the ones who ejected the resident monk?”

1.8.2“Evaṁ, bhante”ti.“Yes, sir.”

1.8.3“Kismiṁ, bhikkhave, vatthusmiṁ kāraṇe”ti?“For what reason?”

1.8.4“Avatthusmiṁ, bhagavā, akāraṇe”ti.“Without any reason.”

1.8.5Vigarahi buddho bhagavā—The Buddha rebuked them,1.8.6PTS 1.315“ananucchavikaṁ, moghapurisā, ananulomikaṁ appatirūpaṁ assāmaṇakaṁ akappiyaṁ akaraṇīyaṁ.“Foolish men, 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.1.8.7Kathañhi nāma tumhe, moghapurisā, suddhaṁ bhikkhuṁ anāpattikaṁ avatthusmiṁ akāraṇe ukkhipissatha.How could you, without reason, eject a pure monk who hadn’t committed any offense?1.8.8Netaṁ, moghapurisā, appasannānaṁ vā pasādāya …pe…This will affect people’s confidence …”1.8.9vigarahitvā dhammiṁ kathaṁ katvā bhikkhū āmantesi—After rebuking them … he gave a teaching and addressed the monks:

1.8.10“na, bhikkhave, suddho bhikkhu anāpattiko avatthusmiṁ akāraṇe ukkhipitabbo.“You shouldn’t, without reason, eject a pure monk who hasn’t committed any offense.1.8.11Yo ukkhipeyya, āpatti dukkaṭassā”ti.If you do, you commit an offense of wrong conduct.”

1.9.1Atha kho te bhikkhū uṭṭhāyāsanā ekaṁsaṁ uttarāsaṅgaṁ karitvā bhagavato pādesu sirasā nipatitvā bhagavantaṁ etadavocuṁ—Those monks then got up from their seats, arranged their upper robes over one shoulder, bowed down with their heads at the Buddha’s feet, and said,1.9.2“accayo no, bhante, accagamā yathābāle yathāmūḷhe yathāakusale, ye mayaṁ suddhaṁ bhikkhuṁ anāpattikaṁ avatthusmiṁ akāraṇe ukkhipimhā.“Sir, we have made a mistake. We’ve been foolish, confused, and unskillful in ejecting, without reason, a pure monk who hadn’t committed any offense.1.9.3Tesaṁ no, bhante, bhagavā accayaṁ accayato paṭiggaṇhātu āyatiṁ saṁvarāyā”ti.Please accept our confession so that we may restrain ourselves in the future.”

1.9.4“Taggha tumhe, bhikkhave, accayo accagamā yathābāle yathāmūḷhe yathāakusale, ye tumhe suddhaṁ bhikkhuṁ anāpattikaṁ avatthusmiṁ akāraṇe ukkhipittha.“You have certainly made a mistake. You’ve been foolish, confused, and unskillful.1.9.5Yato ca kho tumhe, bhikkhave, accayaṁ accayato disvā yathādhammaṁ paṭikarotha, taṁ vo mayaṁ paṭiggaṇhāma.But since you acknowledge your mistake and make proper amends, I forgive you.1.9.6Vuddhihesā, bhikkhave, ariyassa vinaye yo accayaṁ accayato disvā yathādhammaṁ paṭikaroti, āyatiṁ saṁvaraṁ āpajjatī”ti.For this is called growth in the training of the noble ones: acknowledging a mistake, making proper amends, and undertaking restraint for the future.”

2.1.02. Adhammenavaggādikammakathā2. Discussion of illegitimate legal procedures done by an incomplete assembly, etc.

2.1.1Tena kho pana samayena campāyaṁ bhikkhū evarūpāni kammāni karonti—At that time the monks at Campā did legal procedures such as these:2.1.2adhammena vaggakammaṁ karonti, adhammena samaggakammaṁ karonti;illegitimate legal procedures done by an incomplete assembly, illegitimate legal procedures done by a unanimous assembly,2.1.3dhammena vaggakammaṁ karonti, dhammapatirūpakena vaggakammaṁ karonti;legitimate legal procedures done by an incomplete assembly, legitimate-like legal procedures done by an incomplete assembly,2.1.4dhammapatirūpakena samaggakammaṁ karonti;legitimate-like legal procedures done by a unanimous assembly,2.1.5ekopi ekaṁ ukkhipati, ekopi dve ukkhipati, ekopi sambahule ukkhipati, ekopi saṅghaṁ ukkhipati;one person ejecting another, one ejecting two, one ejecting three, one ejecting a sangha,²2.1.6dvepi ekaṁ ukkhipanti, dvepi dve ukkhipanti, dvepi sambahule ukkhipanti, dvepi saṅghaṁ ukkhipanti;two ejecting one, two ejecting two, two ejecting three, two ejecting a sangha,2.1.7sambahulāpi ekaṁ ukkhipanti;three ejecting one,2.1.8sambahulāpi dve ukkhipanti, sambahulāpi sambahule ukkhipanti, sambahulāpi saṅghaṁ ukkhipanti;three ejecting two, three ejecting three, three ejecting a sangha,2.1.9saṅghopi saṅghaṁ ukkhipati.a sangha ejecting a sangha.

2.2.8PTS 1.316“Saccaṁ, bhagavā”ti.“It’s true, sir.”
