8.18

Where the treatise explains the discipline of morality: "Now in this meaning, relying solely on the bhikṣu discipline, it speaks of being well able to guard..." and so forth: Why does it not mention bhikṣuṇīs and the like? Because they cannot enter the noble path. For the most part, those who mature and possess the complete precepts are bhikṣus, whereas others are not so; therefore they are not mentioned.
