4. Dutiyasuppaṭicchannasikkhāpada

Tena samayena buddho bhagavā sāvatthiyaṁ viharati jetavane anāthapiṇḍikassa ārāme. Tena kho pana samayena chabbaggiyā bhikkhū kāyaṁ vivaritvā antaraghare nisīdanti …pe….

Not being well-covered Origin story

At one time the Buddha was staying at Sāvatthī in the Jeta Grove, Anāthapiṇḍika’s Monastery. At that time the monks from the group of six did not cover their bodies while sitting in inhabited areas. …

“Suppaṭicchanno antaraghare nisīdissāmīti sikkhā karaṇīyā”ti.

Final ruling

“‘I will be well-covered while sitting in inhabited areas,’ this is how you should train.”

Suppaṭicchannena antaraghare nisīditabbaṁ. Yo anādariyaṁ paṭicca kāyaṁ vivaritvā antaraghare nisīdati, āpatti dukkaṭassa.

One should be well-covered while sitting in an inhabited area. If a monk, out of disrespect, does not cover his body while sitting in an inhabited area, he commits an offense of wrong conduct.

Anāpatti—
