an4.244:1.1 “Mendicants, there are these four perils of offenses.
BAGIAN 1
an4.244:1.2 What four?
an4.244:1.3 Suppose they were to arrest a bandit, a criminal and present him to the king, saying:
an4.244:1.4 ‘Your Majesty, this is a bandit, a criminal.
an4.244:1.5 May Your Majesty punish them!’
an4.244:1.6 The king would say:
an4.244:1.7 ‘Go, my men, and tie this man’s arms tightly behind his back with a strong rope. Shave his head and march him from street to street and square to square to the beating of a harsh drum. Then take him out the south gate and there, to the south of the city, chop off his head.’
an4.244:1.8 The king’s men would do as they were told.
an4.244:1.9 Then a bystander might think:
an4.244:1.10 ‘This man must have done a truly bad and reprehensible deed, a capital offense.
an4.244:1.12 There’s no way I’d ever do such a bad and reprehensible deed, a capital offense.’
an4.244:1.13 In the same way, take any monk or nun who has set up such an acute perception of peril regarding expulsion offenses.
an4.244:1.14 It can be expected that if they haven’t committed an expulsion offense they won’t, and if they committed one they will deal with it properly.
