1.538

Here, concerning the forfeiture: after forfeiting the bowl in the Saṃgha of this dwelling place, with a single motion (jñapti) the confession is accepted, and one states the name, category, and characteristics of the offence, reproving the mind so that revulsion arises. If the bowl is a fine one, it should be confiscated and retained, and the most inferior and poorest one taken and given to him: one then carries out a single motion, exchanging the bowl successively upwards with the senior monk, and taking the senior monk's bowl to give to the next seat, or giving it to that bhikṣu, passing it along successively in this manner down to the junior monk.
