Appasādapavedanīyasutta A Proclamation of No Confidence

ā€œAį¹­į¹­hahi, bhikkhave, dhammehi samannāgatassa bhikkhuno ākaį¹…khamānā upāsakā appasādaṁ pavedeyyuṁ. ā€œMendicants, the lay followers may, if they wish, make a proclamation of no confidence in a mendicant who has eight qualities.

Katamehi aį¹­į¹­hahi? What eight?

GihÄ«naṁ alābhāya parisakkati, gihÄ«naṁ anatthāya parisakkati, gihÄ« akkosati paribhāsati, gihÄ« gihÄ«hi bhedeti, buddhassa avaṇṇaṁ bhāsati, dhammassa avaṇṇaṁ bhāsati, saį¹…ghassa avaṇṇaṁ bhāsati, agocare ca naṁ passanti. They try to prevent the lay people from getting material things. They try to harm lay people. They insult and abuse lay people. They divide lay people against each other. They criticize the Buddha, the teaching, and the Saį¹…gha. They’re seen at an inappropriate place for collecting alms.

Imehi kho, bhikkhave, aį¹­į¹­hahi dhammehi samannāgatassa bhikkhuno ākaį¹…khamānā upāsakā appasādaṁ pavedeyyuṁ. The lay followers may, if they wish, make a proclamation of no confidence in a mendicant who has these eight qualities.
