1 At one time the Buddha, the Master, was staying at Sāvatthī in the Jeta Grove, Anāthapiṇḍika’s Monastery. At that time Venerable Upananda the Sakyan had become skilled at making robes. He made an outer robe of rags, well-dyed and beautifully executed, and he wore it.

Then a certain wanderer put on an expensive robe, approached Venerable Upananda, and said: “This outer robe of yours is beautiful. Give it to me in exchange for my robe."

“Do you know what you’re doing?"

“I do."

“Ok then," and he gave it.

That wanderer put on the upper robe and went to the wanderer’s park. Some of the wanderers said to him: “This outer robe of yours is beautiful. How did you get it?"

“I got it in exchanged for my cloak."

“But how long will this outer robe last you? That robe of yours was better."

2 Then that wanderer thought, “These wanderers are speaking the truth," and he went to Venerable Upananda and said: “Here is your outer robe; give me back my robe. "

“Didn’t I ask you if you knew what you were doing? I will not give it back."

Then that wanderer grumbled and complained: “Even householders give things back to a householder who has regrets; how then can a wanderer not give back to a wanderer?"

3 Monks heard the complaints of that wanderer, and the monks of few desires … complained and criticised Venerable Upananda: “How can Venerable Upananda engage in bartering with a wanderer?"

4 After criticising him in many ways, they informed the Master. … “Is it true, Upananda, that you engaged in bartering with a wanderer?" “It’s true, Master." The Buddha, the Master, criticised him: “ … Foolish man, how can you engage in bartering with a wanderer? This will not give rise to confidence in those without it … And, monks, this training rule should be recited thus:

Final ruling

5 “If a monk engages in various kinds of bartering, he commits an offence entailing relinquishment and confession."

Definitions

6 A: whoever … Monk: … The monk who is ordained by a complete Sangha through a procedure of one motion and three announcements, which is unchallengeable and fit to stand; this sort of monk is meant in this case.

7 Various kinds: robes, almsfood, lodging requisites, or medicines; even a piece of chunam, a toothwood, or a piece of thread.

8 Engages in [ … ] bartering: if he transgresses, saying, “Give that for this", “Bring that for this", “Purchase that with this", “Exchange that for this," he commits an offence of bad conduct. When it has been bartered—one’s own goods are in the hands of the other and the other’s goods are in one’s own hands—it becomes subject to relinquishment.

The goods are to be relinquished to a Sangha, a group, or an individual. “And, monks, it is to be relinquished in this way. … To be expanded as in Nissaggiya Pācittiya 1, verses 13 to 17 with appropriate substitutions. … ‘Bhante, I engaged in various kinds of bartering. This is to be relinquished. I relinquish it to the Sangha.’ … the Sangha should give … the Venerables should give … “I give this back to the Venerable."

Permutations

9 If it is bartering, and he perceives it as bartering, he commits an offence entailing relinquishment and confession. If it is bartering, but he has doubt about it, he commits an offence entailing relinquishment and confession. If it is bartering, but he does not perceive it as bartering, he commits an offence entailing relinquishment and confession.

10If it is not bartering, but he perceives it as bartering, he commits an offence of bad conduct. If it is not bartering, but he has doubt about it, he commits an offence of bad conduct. If it is not bartering, and he does not perceive it as bartering, there is no offence.

Non-offences

11There is no offence: if he asks for the price; if he tells an attendant; if he says, “I have this, and I have need of such-and-such"; if he is insane; if he is the first offender.

12The tenth rule, the training rule on bartering, is finished.
The second chapter on silk is finished.

13This is the summary:

14Silk, entirely, two parts,
Six years, sitting cloth;
And two on hair, on taking,
Two on various kinds.
