If a monk, who has built a monastery, offered bedding, and established steady alms at that park; who has built a stūpa for the bodily remains of a tathāgata, and offered a central pole to be planted, a parasol to be set up, flags to be planted, banners to be affixed, various fragrant perfumes, sandalwood paste, and saffron for that stūpa; or who has developed regret or a deviant view about one or another of the Four Divisions of the Discourses, prepares much wealth in the form of cloth and food and sends a messenger to the monks with the message, ‘Come! The venerable ones should dispel the deviant view I have developed,’ a monk, a monk may leave on a monk’s business after having a seven-day leave sanctioned. All these instances of a monk’s business should be expressed at length as above.⁵²  
  
“Another instance of a monk’s business: If a saṅgha is about to impose on a monk a punitive act such as an act of censure; an act of chastening; an act of expulsion; an act of reconciliation; or an act of suspension for refusing to acknowledge a fault, for refusing to amend one’s behavior, or for refusing to relinquish deviant views, and the monk sends a messenger to the monks with the message, ‘Come! The venerable ones should side with the Dharma,’ a monk, a monk may leave on a monk’s business after having a seven-day leave sanctioned. This is a monk’s business.  
  
“Another instance of a monk’s business: If the saṅgha has already imposed on a monk a punitive act such as an act of censure; an act of chastening; an act of expulsion; an act of reconciliation; or an act of suspension for refusing to acknowledge a fault, for refusing to amend one’s behavior, or for refusing to relinquish deviant views, and the monk sends a messenger to the monks with the message, ‘Come! The venerable ones will rescind the punishment,’’⁵³
