Pāṭimokkha

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In Theravada Buddhism, the Patimokkha is the basic code of monastic discipline, consisting of 227 rules for fully ordained monks (bhikkhus) and 311 for nuns (bhikkhunis). It is contained in the Suttavibhanga, a division of the Vinaya Pitaka.

Parajika

The four parajikas (defeats) are rules entailing expulsion from the sangha for life. If a monk breaks any one of the rules he is automatically "defeated" in the holy life and falls from monkhood immediately. He is not allowed to become a monk again in his lifetime. Intention is necessary in all these four cases to constitute an offence. The four parajikas for bhikkus are:

1. Sexual intercourse: engaging in any sexual intercourse.
2. Stealing: the robbery of anything worth more than 1/24 troy ounce of gold (as determined by local law).
3. Intentionally bringing about the death of a human being — whether by killing the person, arranging for an assassin to kill the person, inciting the person to die, or describing the advantages of death.
4. Deliberately lying to another person that one has attained a superior human state, such as claiming to be an arahant when one knows one is not, or claiming to have attained one of the jhanas when one knows one has not.

The parajikas are more specific definitions of the first four of the Five Precepts.

Sanghadisesa

The thirteen sanghadisesas are rules requiring an initial and subsequent meeting of the sangha (communal meetings). If the monk breaks any rule here he has to undergo a period of probation or discipline after which, if he shows himself to be repentant, he may be reinstated by a sangha of not less than twenty monks. Like the parajikas, the sanghadisesas can only come about through the monk's own intention and cannot be accidentally invoked. The thirteen sanghadisesas for bhikkus are:

1. Discharge of semen or getting someone to discharge your semen, except while dreaming
2. Lustful bodily contact with a woman, including kissing or holding hands
3. Making lustful remarks to a woman alluding to her genitals or sexual intercourse
4. Requesting sexual favors from a woman, or telling her that she would benefit spiritually from having sex with the monk.
5. Arranging for a date, affair, or marriage between a man and woman
6. Building a hut without permission from the sangha, or building a hut that exceed 3 x 1.75 meters in size
7. Having someone else build a hut for you without permission from the sangha, or exceeding 3 x 1.75 meters in size
8. Making unfounded charges about another bhikkhu in the hopes of having him disrobed
9. Making deceitfully worded charges about another bhikkhu in the hopes of having him disrobed
10. Agitating for a schism, even after having been rebuked three times
11. Supporting an agitator, even after he was rebuked three times (only applies if there are fewer than four supporters)
12. Rejecting well-grounded criticism, even after having been rebuked three times
13. Criticizing the justice of one's own banishment, even after having been rebuked three times

Aniyata

The aniyata are two indefinite rules where a monk is accused of having committed an offence with a woman in a screened (enclosed) or private place by a lay person. It is indefinite because the final outcome depends on whether the monk acknowledges the offence. Benefit of the doubt is given to the monk unless there is over-riding evidence.

Thus it is not proper for a monk to be alone with a woman, especially in screened or private places.

1. Sitting in private with a woman on a seat secluded enough for sexual intercourse and the monk acknowledges the offense
2. Sitting in private with a woman on a seat not sufficiently secluded for sexual intercourse but sufficiently so to address lewd words and the monk acknowledges the offense

Nissaggiya pacittiya

The nissaggiya pacittiya are rules entailing "confession with forfeiture." They are mostly concerned with the possessing of items which are disallowed or obtained in disallowable ways. The monk must forfeit the item and then confess his offense to another monk. The thirty nissaggiya pacittiya for bhikkhu are:

1. Keeping an extra robe for more than ten days after receiving a new one
2. Sleeping in a separate place from any of his three robes
3. Keeping an out-of-season robe for more than thirty days when one has expectation for a new robe
4. Getting an unrelated bhikkhuni to wash your robes for you
5. Accepting robes from a bhikkhuni as a gift
6. Accepting robes from the laity, except when one's own robes have been destroyed, or one is asking for the sake of another bhikkhu
7. Accepting too many robes from the laity when one's own robes have been destroyed
8. Accepting a robe from a lay person after telling them that their robe is too cheap for you
9. Accepting a robe from the laity after asking two or more of them to pool their funds in order to buy a nicer robe
10. Accepting a robe after coming to the treasurer to get the robe more than six times (since this indicates an excess of desire)
11. Owning a blanket or rug made of silk
12. Making or accepting a blanket or rug made from pure black wool
13. Making or accepting a blanket or rug made from more than 50% black wool
14. Making or accepting a blanket or rug fewer than six years after you last made or accepted one

16. Carrying raw wool for more than 48 km
17. Getting a bhikkhuni to wash, dye, or card raw wool
18. Accepting gold or money, or telling someone how to donate it. If money is placed in a bhikkhu's presence he may not recognize it as his nor tell someone else to take care of it for him. Bhikkhus often have stewards who will take care of donations, but the stewards are always free to take the money and leave
19. Buying or selling goods
20. Trading goods with anyone besides other bhikkhus
21. Keeping an extra alms bowl for more than ten days after receiving a new one

Pakinnaka (miscellaneous)

A bhikku should train himself thus: If I am not sick...

1. I will not defecate or urinate while standing.
2. I will not defecate, urinate or spit on green vegetation.
3. I will not defecate, urinate or spit into water.

Adhikarana-samatha are seven rules for settlement of legal processes that concern monks only.

1. When an issue is settled, the verdict should be in the presence of the sangha, the parties, the Dhamma and the Vinaya.
2. If the bhikku is innocent, the verdict should be "mindfulness".
3. If the bhikku was or is insane, the verdict should be "past insanity".
4. If the bhikku confesses to the exact allegations, the verdict should be "acting in accordance with what was admitted".
5. If the dispute cannot be unanimously settled, the sangha should take a vote and the verdict should be "acting in accordance with the majority".
6. If the bhikku confesses only after interrogation, the verdict should be "acting in accordance with the accused's further misconduct".
7. If both sides agree that they are not acting the way monks ought to, they can call a full assembly of the sima and confess their mistakes, and the verdict should be "covering over as with grass."
