The chapter on the robe-making ceremony
1. The allowance for a robe-making ceremony
At one time the Buddha was staying at Sāvatthī in the Jeta Grove, Anāthapiṇḍika’s Monastery.
At that time thirty monks from Pāvā—all wilderness dwellers, almsfood-only eaters, rag-robe wearers, and three-robe owners—were traveling to Sāvatthī to visit the Buddha. Because the entry to the rainy-season residence was approaching, they were unable to reach Sāvatthī,
and they entered the rains residence at Sāketa while still on their way.
They spent the rains residence discontented, thinking, “The Buddha is only 80 kilometers away, yet we don’t get to see him.”
When they had completed the rainy-season residence and done the invitation ceremony at the end of the three months, it was raining, with water and mud everywhere. As they traveled to Sāvatthī, they were exhausted, their robes soaked.
When they arrived at Sāvatthī, they went to Anāthapiṇḍika’s Monastery, bowed to the Buddha, and sat down.
Since it is the custom for Buddhas to greet newly-arrived monks,
the Buddha said to them,
“I hope you’re keeping well, monks, I hope you’re getting by?
I hope you had a comfortable rains, that you lived together in peace and harmony, and got almsfood without trouble?”
“We’re keeping well, sir, we’re getting by.
We had a comfortable rains, lived together in peace and harmony, and had no trouble getting almsfood.”
They told the Buddha what had happened during the rains and while traveling to Sāvatthī.
Soon afterwards the Buddha gave a teaching and addressed the monks:
“I allow monks who have completed the rainy-season residence to participate in a robe-making ceremony.1
Once you have participated in the robe-making ceremony, five things are allowable for you:
going without informing, going without taking, eating in a group, as much robe-cloth as you need, and whatever robe-cloth is given there is for you.2
And the robe-making ceremony should be performed like this.
A competent and capable monk should inform the Sangha:
‘Please, venerables, I ask the Sangha to listen.
This cloth has been given to the Sangha for the robe-making ceremony.
If the Sangha is ready, it should give this cloth to monk so-and-so to perform the robe-making ceremony.
This is the motion.
Please, venerables, I ask the Sangha to listen.
This cloth has been given to the Sangha for the robe-making ceremony.
The Sangha gives this cloth to monk so-and-so to perform the robe-making ceremony.
Any monk who approves of giving this cloth to monk so-and-so to perform the robe-making ceremony should remain silent.
Any monk who doesn’t approve should speak up.
The Sangha has given this cloth to monk so-and-so to perform the robe-making ceremony.
The Sangha approves and is therefore silent. I will remember it thus.’
And, monks, how has the robe-making ceremony not been performed?
The robe-making ceremony hasn’t been performed merely by marking the cloth,3
merely by washing the cloth,
merely by planning the robe,4
merely by cutting the cloth,
merely by tacking the cloth,5
merely by sewing a hem,6
merely by marking with a strip of cloth,7
merely by strengthening,
merely by adding a border lengthwise,8
merely by adding a border crosswise,9
merely by patching,10
merely by partial dyeing;11
nor has it been performed if a monk has made an indication,12
if a monk has given a hint,13
if the robe-cloth has been borrowed,14
if it has been stored,
if it is to be relinquished,
if it hasn’t been marked,15
if it’s not an outer robe
or an upper robe
or a sarong;
nor has it been performed if the robe hasn’t been made on that very day with five or more cut sections with panels,16
if the robe-making ceremony wasn’t performed by an individual,17
or if the robe-making ceremony has been performed correctly but the appreciation for the ceremony was expressed outside the monastery zone.18
In this way the robe-making ceremony hasn’t been performed.
And how has the robe-making ceremony been performed?
The robe-making ceremony has been performed if the cloth is brand new, if it’s nearly new, if it’s old, if it’s a rag, if it’s from a shop; it has been performed if a monk hasn’t made an indication, if a monk hasn’t given a hint, if the robe-cloth hasn’t been borrowed, if it hasn’t been stored, if it’s not to be relinquished, if it has been marked, if it’s an outer robe or an upper robe or a sarong; it has been performed if the robe has been made on that very day with five or more cut sections with panels, if the robe-making ceremony was performed by an individual, if the robe-making ceremony has been performed correctly and if the appreciation for the ceremony was expressed inside the monastery zone.19
In this way the robe-making ceremony has been performed.
And how does the robe season come to an end?
There are these eight key phrases for when the robe season ends:
when he departs from the monastery, when the robe is finished, when he makes a decision, when the robe-cloth is lost, when he hears about the end of the robe season, when an expectation of more robe-cloth is disappointed, when he is outside the monastery zone, ending together.”
