尼羯磨 2.106

2.106

"If the two ayyes permit me to receive the confession of bhikṣuṇī so-and-so, I shall receive it." (Those two bhikṣuṇīs should reply:) "It may be so." (Only after having received the permission of the two bhikṣuṇīs does that confession master reply to the confessant:) "It may be so." (The confession procedure is as above. However, confession before a small assembly requires three persons. Confession before two persons is identical to this without difference, except that nissaggiya-pācittiya is generally permissible before two persons.)
