5. These persons who are comparable to Benares cloth.


What are the three types of persons comparable to three kinds of
Benares cloth?
There are three kinds of Benares cloth, one brand-new, beautifully
colored of smooth texture and valuable. Another cloth is neither new nor
old but of fine color, smooth to touch and of much value. The last one
which is worn out yet beautiful in color and pleasant to the touch. They
use this worn Benares cloth for enwrapping jewellery or they throw it
into the perfumed chest.
In the same manner, there exist among the monks three types of
persons comparable to these Benares cloths. What are the three?
If a certain newly young Buddhist monk happens to be virtuous
and lovely, it is as beauty of color in him. Just as Benares cloth is
beautifully colored, so also is this person. Those who serve him, respect
him, worship him, entertain the same views with him, this will be for
their good and happiness for a long time. This is owing to the pleasure of
contact with him. Just a Benares cloth is pleasant to the touch, in the
same way should this person be figured. It comes to be of good
consequence and great advantage to those from whom he accepts four
requisites (residence, robe, food and medicines), this is owing to the
great worth of the person. Just as a Benares cloth is valuable, so also is
this person. If a middle-aged monk ... pe ... If a senior monk happens to
be virtuous and good natured, it is because of his virtue. Just as Benares
cloth is beautifully colored, so also is this person. Those who serve him,
respect him, worship him, entertain the same views with him, this will
be for their good and happiness for a long time. This owing to the
pleasure of contact with him. Just as a Benares cloth is pleasant to the
touch, in the same way should this person is amiable in disposition. It
comes to be of great benefit and great advantage to those from whom he
accepts four requisites (residence, robe, food and medicines), this is
owing to the great worth of the person. Just as a Benares cloth is
valuable, so also is this person.

If such a senior monk happens to say something in an assemble of


monks, then the monks would address the assembly thus: “let the
venerable brethren make less noise, this monk is speaking about the
doctrine, and the discipline” and his words will be laid to heart, just in
the same way as Benares cloth is deposited in the perfumed chest.
These are the three types of persons who live and have their being
among the monks, that are comparable to Benares cloth.
