He is an exponent of the [[Dhamma]], an exponent of the [[Vinaya]]. He acts with our consent and approval. He [[knows]], he speaks for {{Wiki|us}}, and that is [[pleasing]] to {{Wiki|us}}," other [[bhikkhus]] are to admonish them thus: "Do not say that, Ven. sirs. That [[bhikkhu]] is not an exponent of the [[Dhamma]] and he is not an exponent of the [[Vinaya]]. Do not, Ven. sirs, approve of a {{Wiki|schism}} in the Community.

Refrain, [[venerable]] ones, from admonishing me" -- the [[bhikkhus]] should admonish him thus: "Let the [[venerable one]] not make himself unadmonishable. Let the [[venerable one]] make himself admonishable. Let the [[venerable one]] admonish the [[bhikkhus]] in accordance with what is right, and the [[bhikkhus]] will admonish the [[venerable one]] in accordance with what is right; for it is thus that the Blessed One's following is nurtured: through mutual admonition, through mutual rehabilitation."

The [[bhikkhus]] are not prejudiced by {{Wiki|favoritism}}, are not prejudiced by [[aversion]], are not prejudiced by [[delusion]], are not prejudiced by {{Wiki|fear}}. You, Ven. sir, are a corrupter of families, a man of depraved conduct. Your depraved conduct is both seen and heard about, and the families you have corrupted are both seen and heard about.

May the [[venerable one]] accept this robe fund," then the [[bhikkhu]] is to tell the messenger: "We do not accept robe funds, my friend. We accept [[robes]] (robe-cloth) as are proper according to season."

May the you be united with what is yours. May what is yours not be lost." This is the proper course here.
