The Mahīśāsaka-vinaya's karman text: 'Let the venerable saṃgha listen. Monk so-and-so has passed away. His tricīvara, pātra, and requisites are what the saammukhībhūta-saṃgha ought to distribute. Now let them be given to the gilānopasthāyaka so-and-so. If the time has arrived for the saṃgha, let the saṃgha grant permission. Such is the jñapti.' 'Let the venerable saṃgha listen. Monk so-and-so has passed away. His tricīvara and pātra are what the saammukhībhūta-saṃgha ought to distribute. Now they have been given to the gilānopasthāyaka so-and-so. Whichever elders consent, remain silent; if anyone does not consent, let him speak!' 'The saṃgha has already given monk so-and-so's robes and pātra. The saṃgha consents because it remains silent. Thus is this matter maintained.' If a karman is performed to appoint one person to distribute the deceased's remaining robes and goods, the karman text does not differ from this, except that one changes 'the entire saṃgha gives the robes to monk so-and-so, and monk so-and-so shall return them to the saṃgha' without any other difference.
