3.26
"Ayye! Do not do this; this should not be done. What you are doing, ayye, is not the Dharma, not the vinaya, not that which was taught by the Buddha." (Yet if this bhikṣuṇī does not comply with the good bhikṣuṇīs' admonition and exhortation in accordance with the Dharma, and proceeds to violate the precepts: if this bhikṣuṇī herself knew that what she was doing was right and clearly thought the other who admonished her was wrong, and intentionally did it, she commits the fundamental [offence]; for not complying with the words, [she commits] a duṣkṛta. If this bhikṣuṇī herself knew that what she was doing was wrong and clearly thought the other who admonished her was right, and intentionally did it, she commits the fundamental [offence]; for not complying with the words, [she commits] a pāyattika. If an unintelligent person does not know the procedure of admonition, one should say to her:) "You may ask your upādhyāyinī or ācāryā, study and inquire further, recite the sūtras, and having understood the procedure of admonition, only then administer the admonition." (This single procedure of admonition universally applies to preventing wrongdoing; it is unlike the saṃgha's formal admonition, which is established separately according to the case.)
