Chapter 3

1. Now at that time the venerable Udâyi had committed an offence--the first Samghâdisesa--which he had for one day concealed.

He told the Bhikkhus (&c., as before).

They told this thing to the Blessed One.

'Then, O Bhikkhus, let the Samgha impose a probation of one day on Udâyi the Bhikkhu for an offence (&c., as in the first paragraph of this section down to) concealed.

2. 'Now thus, O Bhikkhus, ought it to be imposed--.'
