The saṃgha appoints bhikṣuṇī so-and-so to go before the great saṃgha on behalf of the bhikṣuṇī saṃgha to declare pravāraṇā in three matters: what has been seen, heard, or suspected. Whichever of the ayyes permits that the saṃgha appoint bhikṣuṇī so-and-so to go before the great saṃgha on behalf of the bhikṣuṇī saṃgha to declare pravāraṇā in three matters: what has been seen, heard, or suspected, let her remain silent; whoever does not permit, let her speak. The saṃgha has permitted appointing bhikṣuṇī so-and-so to go before the great saṃgha on behalf of the bhikṣuṇī saṃgha to declare pravāraṇā in three matters: what has been seen, heard, or suspected. The saṃgha permits, because of the silence. Thus do I hold this matter." (Because she travels alone without protection, it is permitted, for the sake of protection, to appoint two or three bhikṣuṇīs as companions.) > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.222](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1810.1.222) - [Next: 1.224](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1810.1.224) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1810.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1810~en-mt.1.223) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (3) - [羯磨](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.vinaya.sastra.karmavacana*zh-tandi.1.319) — Classical Chinese - [曇無德律部雜羯磨](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.vinaya.sastra.dharmaguptakakarmavacana*zh-sanghavarman-wei.1.307) — Classical Chinese - [四分比丘尼羯磨法](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.vinaya.sastra.dharmaguptabhiksunikarman*zh-gunavarman.1.96) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1810.1.223](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1810.1.223) · Pramāṇa
