Culpability and Disciplinary Culture in the Vinaya
Abstract
This chapter examines the Vinaya and how Buddhaghosa guides us to read it. It considers how intention is construed in this legalistic literature as a central criterion for determining culpability in breaches of the monastic rules. It argues that the Vinaya texts provide a moral and legal education that is highly sensitive to motivation and the situated particulars of human life. It also reads these sources as depicting an idealized disciplinary culture that shapes subjectivity and intentional agency through ritual and communal practices of admonishment, confession, and other techniques.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
