On the criterion for judgement on the samgha's harmony

&nbsp;&nbsp;The purpose of this study is to consider the criterion for judgement on the sa？gha"s harmony focused on the definition of harmony in the P？li Vinaya. The prior studies have discussed about this subject, in those researches, however, it has generally been understood that the "common execution" of kamma practiced in semmukh？bh？tasa？gha(瑜前僧伽), seeming to denote very important symbolic of the sa？gha"s harmony, is the only ritual ceremony that all monks in the same boundary must participate.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;In this study I would like to suggest the fact that the "common execution" of kamma was not only the ritual ceremony, but also the ceremony requiring the perfect union of mind among the members of sa？gha by investigating the meaning of the sem？nasa？v？saka in the Pali Vinaya. That is, the sa？gha"s harmony is truly realized by fulfilling these two elements-mind and body.<BR>&nbsp;&nbsp;We might think that this method for maintenance of the sa？gha"s harmony is very self-righteous. But, On the one hand, the sa？gha achieved firm harmony in the level of sammukh？bh？ta-sa？gha by sam？nasa？v？saka; on the other, they admitted the existence of n？n？sa？v？saka who could not possibly compromise with them. I think that this stance is very effective for harmony of the whole Buddhist sa？gha.
