He should instruct him to stand up, properly put on his seven-strip robe for him, and ensure that his deportment is orderly and correct. He puts on his sandals, folds his sitting mat over his shoulder, and wraps his robes and bowl, placing them in his hands. He instructs him: "Stand here. I will go to the saṃgha to make the formal request for you. If the saṃgha gives permission, I will raise my hand to summon you, and you may come immediately." The Pañcavargika-vinaya states: When teaching him to put on the robes, secretly inspect according to the Dharma whether he has any severe diseases or not; various details follow circumstances, as explained at length therein. Alternatively, according to other Vinayas, it is here that the robes and bowl are formally conferred.
