3.63

"Suṇātu me ayye saṃgho! Bhikṣuṇī [so-and-so] suffers from a wasting disease, has a pāṃsukūla saṃghāṭī that is heavy, and has reason to travel among people, but is unable to carry it; she requests from the saṃgha the procedure for non-forfeiture of robes. Now the saṃgha establishes the procedure for non-forfeiture of robes for bhikṣuṇī [so-and-so]. Whichever ayyes consent to the saṃgha establishing the procedure for non-forfeiture of robes for bhikṣuṇī [so-and-so], remain silent; whoever does not consent, speak. The saṃgha has consented to establish the procedure for non-forfeiture of robes for bhikṣuṇī [so-and-so]. The saṃgha consents, therefore it is silent; thus is this matter maintained."
