(2)The Discussion of Rescinding the Suspension Transaction for not Making Amends

“Monks, there is the case where a monk, having had a suspension transaction imposed on him for not making amends for an offense by the Saṅgha, behaves properly, lowers his hackles, mends his ways. He asks for the rescinding of the suspension transaction for not making amends for an offense.

“Now suppose the thought occurs to the monks, ‘Friends, this monk, having had a suspension transaction for not making amends for an offense imposed on him by the Saṅgha, has behaved properly, lowered his hackles, mended his ways. He is asking for the rescinding of the suspension transaction for not making amends for an offense. Let’s rescind the suspension transaction on him for not making amends for an offense.”

“They, a faction, rescind the suspension transaction on him for not making amends for an offense, not in accordance with the Dhamma. …

“United … not in accordance with the Dhamma.

“A faction … in accordance with the Dhamma.

“A faction … a semblance of the Dhamma.

“United … a semblance of the Dhamma.

“The Saṅgha there disputes: ‘It’s a factional transaction, not in accordance with the Dhamma; a united transaction, not in accordance with the Dhamma; a semblance-of-Dhamma factional transaction; a semblance-of-Dhamma united transaction; it’s an undone transaction, a poorly done transaction; the transaction should be done again.’

“The monks there who say, ‘It’s a semblance-of-Dhamma, united transaction,’ and those who say, ‘It’s an undone transaction, a poorly done transaction; the transaction should be done again,’ — in this case, these monks are speakers of Dhamma.

These five sections are condensed.
