6.26

"Furthermore, from anādikāla until today, we disciples, in traveling with merchants, bartering goods, and trading in shops and marketplaces, have used light steelyards, small peck-measures, short measures of inches and feet, stealing fractions and ounces, cheating over pinches and grains, exchanging coarse for fine, swapping short for long, using hundreds of deceitful ploys to seek the slightest profit. Measureless and boundless are such crimes as these; today with shame and remorse we take refuge and perform kṣamā.
