當會揵椎，當先從小起，大下三十，次下二十，次下十，小小下五。如是至三，後大下三。會沙門時，便大下四十，次下三十，次下二十，次下十，小小下五。上三通，後三大下。若布薩時，先小小下七，大下五十，次四十，次三十，次二十，次小小下十。亦三通，大下三。僧飯時，先大下四，䟽直下二十，次下十，小小下亦十，次下五，後再通。先數隨時，趣三通當視因緣。非常時無數，先急後緩或時先緩後急，是都摩波利揵椎法。

When assembling [by striking] the gaṇḍī, one must first begin lightly: thirty heavy strikes, next twenty strikes, next ten strikes, and five very light strikes. This is done three times, and then three heavy strikes. When assembling śramaṇas, then forty heavy strikes, next thirty strikes, next twenty strikes, next ten strikes, and five very light strikes; three rounds as above, followed by three heavy strikes. When it is for poṣadha, first seven very light strikes, fifty heavy strikes, next forty, next thirty, next twenty, and next ten very light strikes; also three rounds, with three heavy strikes. At the saṅgha's meal, first four heavy strikes, twenty slow, straight strikes, next ten strikes, also ten very light strikes, next five strikes, and then two rounds. The preceding numbers vary according to the time, aiming for three rounds, and one must observe the circumstances. In emergencies there is no fixed count: first rapid and then slow, or sometimes first slow and then rapid. This is the chief vihārapāla's method of striking the gaṇḍī.
