Monk (比丘: an imprecise Sanskrit form; it should be *bhikṣu*; translated here as 'frightener of Māra' [first], 'mendicant' [second], 'pure livelihood' [third], 'pure precepts' [fourth], and 'destroyer of evil' [fifth]; because it possesses these five meanings, the Sanskrit term is retained and not translated).
