posed only on those who confess their actions, the act of confessing these transgressions would thus open the way for both Saṃghas to impose penance on the offender in line with the fifth rule of respect. Interestingly, the first rule of respect was enforced by a rule for the monks. Cv.X.3 imposes a dukkaṭa on a monk who bows down to a woman, rises up from his seat for her, salutes her with hands palm-to-palm over his heart, or performs forms of respect due to a superior to her. Thus if a monk broke this rule, he would have to confess the fact; the nun in question would be confronted with his confession, thus setting in line proceedings that could lead to her observing penance. - --> - - - -
