僧羯磨 2.94

2.94

"May the venerable saṃgha listen! This bhikṣuṇī named so-and-so has committed such-and-such saṃghāvaśeṣa offense, and now begs the saṃgha for the half-month mānatva; the saṃgha grants the bhikṣuṇī named so-and-so the half-month mānatva. Whichever elders approve that the saṃgha grant the bhikṣuṇī named so-and-so the half-month mānatva, let them remain silent. Whoever does not approve, let him speak." (Spoken three times.) "The saṃgha has approved granting the bhikṣuṇī named so-and-so the half-month mānatva. The saṃgha approves, because it is silent. Thus is this matter held." (Once she has received the procedure, the procedure for announcing the practice and the rest are all the same as for a bhikṣu, without any difference.)
