6. Dutiyasusaṁvutasikkhāpada

Tena samayena buddho bhagavā sāvatthiyaṁ viharati jetavane anāthapiṇḍikassa ārāme. Tena kho pana samayena chabbaggiyā bhikkhū hatthampi pādampi kīḷāpentā antaraghare nisīdanti …pe….

Being unrestrained 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 were playing with their hands and feet while sitting in inhabited areas. …

“Susaṁvuto antaraghare nisīdissāmīti sikkhā karaṇīyā”ti.

Final ruling

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

Susaṁvutena antaraghare nisīditabbaṁ. Yo anādariyaṁ paṭicca hatthaṁ vā pādaṁ vā kīḷāpento antaraghare nisīdati, āpatti dukkaṭassa.

One should be well-restrained while sitting in an inhabited area. If a monk, out of disrespect, plays with his hands or feet while sitting in an inhabited area, he commits an offense of wrong conduct.

Anāpatti—

Non-offenses

There is no offense:

asañcicca, assatiyā, ajānantassa, gilānassa, ummattakassa, ādikammikassāti.

if it is unintentional; if he is not mindful; if he does not know; if he is sick; if he is insane; if he is the first offender.
