If he cannot do so on his own, he should signal with his hands³⁵ to another monk and, joining hands, put it where it belongs. Then, while keeping silent, they should leave without speaking to one another.” > > The monks, having adopted such a rule, then pledged to settle for the rains there. > > After the three months of the rains had passed, the great many monks mended their robes. After mending their robes, they took up their begging bowls and robes and, without speaking to one another, set out on the journey to Śrāvastī. Traveling in stages, they eventually arrived in Śrāvastī where, having stored their begging bowls and robes and washed their feet, the great many monks went to the Blessed One. After bowing their heads at the Blessed One’s feet, they sat off to one side. > > It is natural for blessed buddhas to welcome those monks who come to visit them with the welcoming words, “Monks, where have you come from? Where did you pledge to settle for the rains?” And so the Blessed One welcomed the monks who had come, asking, “Monks, where have you come from? Where did you pledge to settle for the rains?” > > “Honorable One, we have just now come from such and such a place.³⁶ We pledged to settle for the rains there.” > — Robert Miller & Fumi Yao, The Chapter on Going Forth; The Chapter on the Restoration Rite; The Chapter on Lifting Restrictions; The Chapter on the Rains; The Chapter on Medicines - [Previous: 2.182](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.vinaya.mulasarvastivada.vinayavastu*bo.2.182) - [Next: 3.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.vinaya.mulasarvastivada.vinayavastu*bo.3.2) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.vinaya.mulasarvastivada.vinayavastu*bo.3) ## Translations (2) - [The Chapter on Going Forth; The Chapter on the Restoration Rite; The Chapter on Lifting Restrictions; The Chapter on the Rains; The Chapter on Medicines](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.vinaya.mulasarvastivada.vinayavastu*bo~en-84000.3.2) — Robert Miller & Fumi Yao, English - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.vinaya.mulasarvastivada.vinayavastu*bo~en-mt.3.1) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.vinaya.mulasarvastivada.vinayavastu*bo.3.1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.vinaya.mulasarvastivada.vinayavastu*bo.3.1) · Pramāṇa
