mn31:9.1 “Indeed, sir, we live diligently.”
BAGIAN 9
mn31:9.2 “But how do you live this way?”
mn31:9.3 “In this case, sir, whoever returns first from almsround prepares the seats, and puts out the drinking water and the rubbish bin.
mn31:9.4 If there’s remainder, whoever returns last eats it if they like. Otherwise they throw it out where there is little that grows, or drop it into water that has no living creatures.
mn31:9.5 Then they put away the seats, drinking water, and rubbish bin, and sweep the refectory.
mn31:9.6 If someone sees that the pot of water for washing, drinking, or the toilet is empty they set it up.
mn31:9.7 If he can’t do it, he summons another with a wave of the hand, and they set it up by lending each other a hand to lift. But we don’t break into speech for that reason.
mn31:9.8 And every five days we sit together for the whole night and discuss the teachings.
mn31:9.9 That’s how we live diligently, keen, and resolute.”
