[1295] How many Sekhiya rules were declared
by the Buddha, the Kinsman of the Sun (ādiccabandhu)?
Let us hear from you the domains
of one who professes the Vinaya.
Seventy-five Sekhiya rules were declared
by the Buddha, the Kinsman of the Sun.
Hear from me the domains
of one who professes the Vinaya.
As well as it was asked by you,
so well has it been answered by me;
and in the questioning and in the answering
there is nothing without a supporting text (asuttaka).
