Second, formally applying the holy karman: The sthavira asks, 'The saṃgha is now assembled; what is to be done?' The reply is, 'The karman to demarcate the great boundary!' It should be demarcated with a jñaptidvitīyā-karman. The text reads: 'May the venerable saṃgha listen! The bhikṣus of this residence have proclaimed the marks of the great boundary on the four sides. If the saṃgha's time has come and the saṃgha approves, may it listen: The saṃgha now within these marks on the four sides demarcates a great boundary, having the same residence and the same upoṣadha recitation. This is the motion.' 'May the venerable saṃgha listen! The bhikṣus of this residence have proclaimed the marks of the great boundary on the four sides; the saṃgha now within these marks on the four sides demarcates a great boundary, having the same residence and the same upoṣadha recitation. Whichever elders approve that the saṃgha now within these marks on the four sides demarcates a great boundary, having the same residence and the same upoṣadha recitation, remain silent; whoever does not approve, speak! The saṃgha has approved that within these marks on the four sides, having the same residence and the same upoṣadha recitation, the demarcation of the great boundary is completed. It is because the saṃgha approves and is silent. Thus is this matter upheld.'
