I shall explain, in due order, the right discipline of a houseless monk who has got rid of all worldly ties. Listen to me. (1)
He who is ignorant of the truth, egoistical, greedy, without self-discipline, and who talks loosely, is called ill-behaved and void of learning. (2)
There are five causes which render wholesome discipline impossible: egoism, delusion, carelessness, illness, and idleness: (3)
For eight causes discipline is called virtue, viz.: not to be fond of mirth, to control one's self, not to speak evil of others, not to be without discipline, not to be of wrong discipline, not to be covetous, not to be choleric, to love the truth; for their influence discipline is called virtue. (4, 5)
A monk who is liable to the following fourteen charges, is called ill-behaved, and does not reach Nirvâna: (6)
If he is frequently angry; if he perseveres in his wrath; if he spurns friendly advice; if he is proud of his learning; if he finds fault with others; if he is angry even with friends; if he speaks evil even of a good friend behind his back; if he is positive in his assertions; if he is malicious, egoistical, greedy, without self-discipline; if he does not share with others; if he is always unkind: then he is called ill-behaved.
