[872] By the sixth origination of offenses (āpattisamuṭṭhāna), how many offenses (āpatti) does one commit? By the sixth origination of offenses one commits six offenses. A bhikkhu, having made an arrangement in concert, steals goods: an offense of pārājika. A bhikkhu, perceiving it as unallowable, builds a hut with the site not designated, exceeding the measure, on a site involving harm (sārambha), without a surrounding space: a dukkaṭa in the act of undertaking; when one lump [of plaster] has not yet been applied, an offense of thullaccaya; when that lump has been applied, an offense of saṅghādisesa. A bhikkhu, perceiving it as unallowable, having requested fine foods for his own benefit, eats them: an offense of pācittiya. A bhikkhu, perceiving it as unallowable, eats without having stopped a bhikkhunī who is giving directions: an offense of pāṭidesanīya. By the sixth origination of offenses one commits these six offenses. Of the four failures (vipatti), in how many failures do those offenses partake? Of the seven classes of offenses (āpattikkhandha), in how many classes of offenses are they included? Of the six originations of offenses, by how many originations do they originate? Of the four legal issues (adhikaraṇa), which legal issue [are they]? Of the seven settlements (samatha), by how many settlements are they settled? Those offenses partake in two of the four failures: sometimes in failure of virtue (sīlavipatti), sometimes in failure of conduct (ācāravipatti). Of the seven classes of offenses, they are included in six classes of offenses: sometimes in the class of pārājika offenses, sometimes in the class of saṅghādisesa offenses, sometimes in the class of thullaccaya offenses, sometimes in the class of pācittiya offenses, sometimes in the class of pāṭidesanīya offenses, sometimes in the class of dukkaṭa offenses. Of the six originations of offenses, they originate by one origination: they originate from body, from speech, and from mind (citta). Of the four legal issues, [they are] the legal issue of offenses. Of the seven settlements, they are settled by three settlements: sometimes by resolution in the presence (sammukhāvinaya) together with acting upon acknowledgment (paṭiññātakaraṇa), and sometimes by resolution in the presence together with covering over as with grass (tiṇavatthāraka). The Section on Offenses Committed by the Six Originations of Offenses, the second, is finished.
