There are unharmonious assemblies and harmonious
assemblies.

Katamaa ca, bhikkhave, visamaa parisaa?
And what, monks, is an unharmonious assembly?

Here, monks, in this type of assembly monks perform
unrighteous actions, and do not perform righteous
actions; they perform unethical actions, and do not
perform ethical actions; they are illustrious with
unrighteous actions, and not with righteous actions;
they are illustrious with unethical actions, and not
with ethical actions.

Aya.m vuccati, bhikkhave, visamaa parisaa.
This, monks, is called an unharmonious assembly.

Metta,
John
