[190] A bhikkhu instructs a bhikkhu: "Tell so-and-so: 'Let so-and-so tell so-and-so: "Let so-and-so deprive so-and-so of life."'" — he commits an offense (āpatti) of wrong-doing (dukkaṭa). That one informs the other — an offense of wrong-doing. The murderer accepts — for the original instigator (mūlaṭṭha), an offense of grave transgression (thullaccaya). He deprives that one of life — for all of them, an offense entailing defeat (pārājika).
A bhikkhu instructs a bhikkhu: "Tell so-and-so: 'Let so-and-so tell so-and-so: "Let so-and-so deprive so-and-so of life."'" — an offense of wrong-doing. That one instructs another — an offense of wrong-doing. The murderer accepts — an offense of wrong-doing. He deprives that one of life — for the original instigator, no offense; for the one who gave the instruction and for the murderer, an offense entailing defeat.
