The monk Udāyī should approach the Sangha, arrange his upper robe over one shoulder, pay respect at the feet of the senior monks, squat on his heels, raise his joined palms, and say: ‘Venerables, I’ve committed one offense of intentional emission of semen, concealed for one day. I ask the Sangha for probation for one day for that offense.’ And he should ask a second and a third time.

A competent and capable monk should then inform the Sangha: ‘Please, venerables, I ask the Sangha to listen. The monk Udāyī has committed one offense of intentional emission of semen, concealed for one day. He is asking the Sangha for probation for one day for one offense of intentional emission of semen, concealed for one day. If the Sangha is ready, it should give the monk Udāyī probation for one day for one offense of intentional emission of semen, concealed for one day. This is the motion. Please, venerables, I ask the Sangha to listen. The monk Udāyī has committed one offense of intentional emission of semen, concealed for one day. He is asking the Sangha for probation for one day for one offense of intentional emission of semen, concealed for one day. The Sangha gives the monk Udāyī probation for one day for one offense of intentional emission of semen, concealed for one day. Any monk who approves of giving the monk Udāyī probation for one day for one offense of intentional emission of semen, concealed for one day, should remain silent. Any monk who doesn’t approve should speak up.
