2.12

"This robe the saṃgha shall receive to make the kaṭhina; this robe the saṃgha now receives to make the kaṭhina; this robe the saṃgha has already received to make the kaṭhina." (Spoken three times.) (Those bhikṣus should speak as follows:) "He who receives it has received it well; all the merits and renown herein belong to me." (The robe-holder should reply:) "Yes." (Thus in succession down to the lowest seat. Having received it, five privileges are obtained: first, one may store an extra robe; second, one may spend the night separated from one's robes; third, one may eat in a separate group; fourth, one may eat out of turn; fifth, one may enter a village without taking leave of a bhikṣu.)
