3.13

The Procedure for Imposing the Pratisaṃharaṇīya-karman (There are five factors concerning a white-robed layperson on account of which the saṃgha should perform the pratisaṃharaṇīya-karman: this person is respectful toward father, mother, śramaṇas, and brāhmaṇas, firmly maintaining what should be maintained without abandoning it. There are ten factors concerning a bhikṣu on account of which the saṃgha should perform the pratisaṃharaṇīya-karman: speaking ill of and reviling a white-robed family, contriving to cause loss and reduction to a white-robed family, causing them disadvantage, causing them to have no dwelling place, stirring up quarrels among white-robed people, slandering the Buddha, Dharma, and Saṃgha in front of white-robed people, uttering base insults in front of white-robed people, and promising something to a white-robed person according to the rule but not being truthful. The performance of this, the appointment of an emissary to accompany him to confess, and the revocation are also as in the text of the Vinaya.)
