尼羯磨 2.56

2.56

"Suṇātu me ayye saṃgho! Today the saṃgha suspends the kaṭhina robe. If the saṃgha's time has arrived, and the saṃgha permits, the saṃgha now in harmony suspends the kaṭhina robe. This is the ñatti." (If they do not suspend the robe and exceed the limit of the kaṭhina robe, it is a duṣkṛta. There are eight conditions for relinquishing the kaṭhina robe: first, departure; second, completion; third, non-completion; fourth, loss; fifth, cessation of hope; sixth, hearing news; seventh, leaving the boundary; eighth, joint suspension. Furthermore, there are two kinds of relinquishing the kaṭhina robe: when the bhikṣuṇī holding the kaṭhina robe spends the night outside the boundary, or when the saṃgha in harmony jointly suspends it.)
