“दसहि खो, उपालि, धम्मेहि समन्नागतेन भिक्खुना सामणेरो उपट्ठापेतब्बो। कतमेहि दसहि? इधुपालि, भिक्खु सीलवा होति …पे… समादाय सिक्खति सिक्खापदेसु; बहुस्सुतो होति …पे… दिट्ठिया सुप्पटिविद्धा; पातिमोक्खं खो पनस्स वित्थारेन स्वागतं होति सुविभत्तं सुप्पवत्तं सुविनिच्छितं सुत्तसो अनुब्यञ्जनसो; पटिबलो होति गिलानं उपट्ठातुं वा उपट्ठापेतुं वा; पटिबलो होति अनभिरतिं वूपकासेतुं वा वूपकासापेतुं वा; पटिबलो होति उप्पन्नं कुक्कुच्चं धम्मतो विनोदेतुं; पटिबलो होति उप्पन्नं दिट्ठिगतं धम्मतो विवेचेतुं; पटिबलो होति अधिसीले समादपेतुं; पटिबलो होति अधिचित्ते समादपेतुं; पटिबलो होति अधिपञ्ञाय समादपेतुं। इमेहि खो, उपालि, दसहि धम्मेहि समन्नागतेन भिक्खुना सामणेरो उपट्ठापेतब्बो”ति।

Idhupāli, bhikkhu sīlavā hoti …pe… samādāya sikkhati sikkhāpadesu; bahussuto hoti …pe… diṭṭhiyā suppaṭividdhā; pātimokkhaṁ kho panassa vitthārena svāgataṁ hoti suvibhattaṁ suppavattaṁ suvinicchitaṁ suttaso anubyañjanaso; paṭibalo hoti gilānaṁ upaṭṭhātuṁ vā upaṭṭhāpetuṁ vā; paṭibalo hoti anabhiratiṁ vūpakāsetuṁ vā vūpakāsāpetuṁ vā; paṭibalo hoti uppannaṁ kukkuccaṁ dhammato vinodetuṁ; paṭibalo hoti uppannaṁ diṭṭhigataṁ dhammato vivecetuṁ; paṭibalo hoti adhisīle samādapetuṁ; paṭibalo hoti adhicitte samādapetuṁ; paṭibalo hoti adhipaññāya samādapetuṁ. Imehi kho, upāli, dasahi dhammehi samannāgatena bhikkhunā sāmaṇero upaṭṭhāpetabbo”ti.
“Upāli, a bhikkhu should have ten qualities to be attended on by a novice. What ten? It’s when a bhikkhu is ethical … They’re learned … Both monastic codes have been passed down to them in detail, well analyzed, well mastered, well judged in both the rules and accompanying material. They’re able to care for the sick or get someone else to do so. They’re able to settle dissatisfaction or get someone else to do so. They’re able to dispel remorse when it has come up. They’re able to rationally dissuade someone from misconceptions that come up. They’re able to encourage someone in the higher ethics, the higher mind, and the higher wisdom. A bhikkhu should have these ten qualities to be attended on by a novice.”
