CHULAVAGGA (THE MINOR SECTION)
THIRD KHANDHAKA (PROBATION AND PENANCE - CONTINUED)
Chapter-25 : Concealment , Non-recollection, Then recollection of Offences.
1. 'In case, O Bhikkhus, a Bhikkhu commit two Sanghadisesa offences which he conceals for two months. And it occurs to him (&c., as in last chapter). . . . And he asks . . . . And the Sangha imposes . . . . And while he is undergoing that probation, shame (&c.) overcomes him, &c. . . . And he asks the Sangha for a probation of a further month for those two Sanghadisesa offences concealed for two months. And the Sangha imposes upon him a further probation, &c. . . . Then, O Bhikkhus, that Bhikkhu should from that date undergo that further probation of one month for those two Sanghadisesa offences concealed for two months.
2, 3. 'Now in case, O Bhikkhus, a Bhikkhu have committed two Sanghadisesa offences, which he conceals for two months. And of one month he is aware, but of the other month he is not aware . . . . one month he recollects, but the other month he does not recollect . . . . one month he wittingly conceals, but the other month he unwittingly conceals.'
[This Chapter-is word for word the same as Chapter-23, reading 'month' for 'offence.']
