“पञ्चहि, भिक्खवे, धम्मेहि समन्नागतो भिक्खु उस्सङ्कितपरिसङ्कितो होति पापभिक्खूति अपि अकुप्पधम्मोपि।
“Pañcahi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgato bhikkhu ussaṅkitaparisaṅkito hoti pāpabhikkhūti api akuppadhammopi.
“Bhikkhus, even if a monk is of impeccable character, he might be suspected and distrusted as a ‘bad monk’ for five reasons.
कतमेहि पञ्चहि? इध, भिक्खवे, भिक्खु वेसियागोचरो वा होति, विधवागोचरो वा होति, थुल्लकुमारिकागोचरो वा होति, पण्डकगोचरो वा होति, भिक्खुनीगोचरो वा होति।
Katamehi pañcahi? Idha, bhikkhave, bhikkhu vesiyāgocaro vā hoti, vidhavāgocaro vā hoti, thullakumārikāgocaro vā hoti, paṇḍakagocaro vā hoti, bhikkhunīgocaro vā hoti.
What five? It’s when a monk frequently collects alms from prostitutes, widows, voluptuous girls, eunuchs, or nuns.
इमेहि खो, भिक्खवे, पञ्चहि धम्मेहि समन्नागतो भिक्खु उस्सङ्कितपरिसङ्कितो होति पापभिक्खूति अपि अकुप्पधम्मोपी”ति।
Imehi kho, bhikkhave, pañcahi dhammehi samannāgato bhikkhu ussaṅkitaparisaṅkito hoti pāpabhikkhūti api akuppadhammopī”ti.
Even if a monk is of impeccable character, he might be suspected and distrusted as a ‘bad monk’ for these five reasons.”
