僧羯磨 1.71

1.71

"May the venerable saṃgha listen! This bhikṣu named so-and-so now requests from the assembly of the saṃgha permission to confer the upasampadā upon people; the saṃgha now grants the bhikṣu named so-and-so permission to confer the upasampadā upon people. Whichever elders approve of the saṃgha granting the bhikṣu named so-and-so permission to confer the upasampadā upon people, remain silent; whoever does not approve, speak! The saṃgha has already approved allowing the bhikṣu named so-and-so to confer the upasampadā upon people. Because the saṃgha approves and is silent, thus do we hold this matter." (For a niśrayācārya, the procedure is also the same as this.)
