CHULAVAGGA (THE MINOR SECTION)

FIRST KHANDHAKA

V. THE UKKHEPANIYA-KAMMAS (ACTS OF SUSPENSION)for not acknowledging, nor atoning for an offence

Chapter-28.

1. So the Sangha carried out against Channa the Bhikkhu the Ukkhepaniya-kamma for not acknowledging a fault to the effect that he should not at or dwell together with the Sangha. And after he had been subjected by the Sangha to the Ukkhepaniya-kamma for not acknowledging his fault he went from that residence to another residence. And the Bhikkhus there did no reverence to him, rose not from their seats to welcome him, rendered him not service, offered him not salutation, paid not respect to him, offered him not hospitality, nor esteemed him, nor honoured him, nor supported him. And when he received from the Bhikkhus neither hospitality, nor welcome, nor esteem, nor honour, nor

support, he went from that residence to another residence. And the Bhikkhus there did no reverence to him, rose not from their seats to welcome him, rendered him not service (&c., as before, down to:) he went from that residence to another residence. And when he received no hospitality he returned back again even to Kosambi. Then he conducted himself aright, and he became subdued, and he sought for release, and going up to the Bhikkhus he spoke as follows: 'I, Sirs, having been subjected by the Sangha to the Ukkhepaniyakamma am conducting myself aright in accordance to that, and I am become subdued, and I seek for release. What now should I do?'

They told this thing to the Lord Buddha.

'Then, O Bhikkhus, let the Sangha revoke the Ukkhepaniya-kamma for not acknowledging his fault carried out against Channa the Bhikkhu.

2. 'There are five things, O Bhikkhus, [&c., the rest of this section bearing the same relation to the last, which Chapter-6, §-2, does to Chapter-5.]'

Here end the forty-three cases [in which an Ukkhepaniya-kamma for not acknowledging a fault is not to be revoked].
