[578] Bhikkhus, here again a bhikkhu commits several saṅghādisesa offenses—limited and unlimited, … both distinct and mixed. He requests from the Saṅgha combined probation (samodhānaparivāsa) for those offenses. The Saṅgha grants him combined probation for those offenses. While he is undergoing probation, he commits in the interval several saṅghādisesa offenses—limited, unconcealed. He requests from the Saṅgha the sending back to the beginning (mūlāya paṭikassana) on account of the intervening offenses. The Saṅgha sends him back to the beginning on account of the intervening offenses by an illegitimate formal act (kamma)—one that is reversible, not fit to stand—and grants combined probation contrary to the Dhamma. He, supposing "I am undergoing probation," commits in the interval several saṅghādisesa offenses—limited, unconcealed. Standing at that stage, he remembers the intervening offenses connected with the earlier offenses, and he remembers the intervening offenses connected with the later offenses. It occurs to him: "I have committed several saṅghādisesa offenses—limited and unlimited, … both distinct and mixed. I requested from the Saṅgha combined probation for those offenses; the Saṅgha granted me combined probation for those offenses. While undergoing probation, I committed in the interval several saṅghādisesa offenses—limited, unconcealed. I requested from the Saṅgha the sending back to the beginning on account of the intervening offenses; the Saṅgha sent me back to the beginning on account of the intervening offenses by an illegitimate formal act—reversible, not fit to stand—and granted combined probation contrary to the Dhamma. Supposing 'I am undergoing probation,' I committed in the interval several saṅghādisesa offenses—limited, unconcealed. Standing at that stage, I remember the intervening offenses connected with the earlier offenses, and I remember the intervening offenses connected with the later offenses. Suppose, then, I were to request from the Saṅgha the sending back to the beginning on account of both the intervening offenses connected with the earlier offenses and the intervening offenses connected with the later offenses, by a legitimate formal act—irreversible, fit to stand—with combined probation in accordance with the Dhamma, penance (mānatta) in accordance with the Dhamma, and rehabilitation (abbhāna) in accordance with the Dhamma." He requests from the Saṅgha the sending back to the beginning on account of both the intervening offenses connected with the earlier offenses and the intervening offenses connected with the later offenses, by a legitimate formal act—irreversible, fit to stand—with combined probation in accordance with the Dhamma, penance in accordance with the Dhamma, and rehabilitation in accordance with the Dhamma. The Saṅgha sends him back to the beginning on account of both the intervening offenses connected with the earlier offenses and the intervening offenses connected with the later offenses, by a legitimate formal act—irreversible, fit to stand—grants combined probation in accordance with the Dhamma, grants penance in accordance with the Dhamma, and rehabilitates him in accordance with the Dhamma. That bhikkhu, bhikkhus, is purified of those offenses.
