[499] Bhikkhus, here a bhikkhu who is deserving of rehabilitation (abbhāna) commits, in the interim, several offenses (āpatti) entailing initial and subsequent meetings of the Saṅgha (saṅghādisesa) — of a definite number, not concealed. That bhikkhu should be sent back to the beginning (mūlāya paṭikassitabbo).
