Caratha bhikkhave carikam
bahujanahitaya bahujanasukhaya
Laknukampaya atthaya hitaya
sukhaya Devamanussanam, Ma
akena dve agamittha
Bhikkhus, go out in all the eight
directions for the mundane and
supramundane welfare, prosperity
and happiness of many beings, such
as humans, Devas and Brahmas.
Let not two of you travel together
for each journey, for if two take the
same route, while one is preaching
the other will remain idle, just sitting
in silence.
Anujanami bhikkhave tumheva
dani tasu tasu disasu tesu
janapadesu pabbajetha
upasampadetha
Bhikkus, I allow all of you that you
yourselves may now ordain the
candidates as samanera as well as
bhikkhu in any quarter in any,
district.
Desetha bhikkhave dhammam,
adikalyanam majjhekalyanam,
pariyosanakalyanam satham,
sabyañjanam kevalaparipunnam,
parisuddham brahmacariyam ,
pakasetha.,
Bhikkhus, teach the dhamma that is
full of virtuous qualities in all its
three phases, namely in the
beginning, in the middle and in the
end; endowed with the spirit and the
letter. Give the Devas and humans
the threefold training of
sila , samadhi and pañña which is
perfect in all aspects and free from
the dirt of wrong conduct
(duccarita)
Vinaya Mahavaggapali
