If a bhikṣu steals five coins or more than five coins from another person, whether taking them himself or instructing another to take them, whether breaking them himself or instructing another to break them, whether cutting them himself or instructing another to cut them, or burning, burying, or altering their appearance, he is not a śramaṇa, not a son of the Śākya. Just as when the core of a tāla tree is severed, it will never grow again, so too is a bhikṣu: having committed a pārājika dharma, he will never again achieve the conduct of a bhikṣu. In this matter, you must not do so as long as your life lasts; are you able to uphold this?" > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.420](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1808.1.420) - [Next: 1.422](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1808.1.422) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1808.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1808~en-mt.1.421) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [僧羯磨](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1809.1.127) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1808.1.421](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1808.1.421) · Pramāṇa
