On the duties to the one who shares his cell

^Kd.1.26.1 “The preceptor,^[1] monks, should conduct himself properly towards the one who shares his cell. This is the proper conduct in this respect: the one who shares the cell should be furthered,^[2] he should be helped by the preceptor in regard to recitation, ^BD.4.68 interrogation, exhortation, instruction.^[3] If there is a bowl for the preceptor but no bowl for the one who shares his cell, a bowl should be given by the preceptor to the one who shares his cell, or he should make an effort, thinking ‘How then could a bowl be procured for the one who shares my cell?’ If there is a robe for the preceptor … If there is (another) requisite for the preceptor … ^Vin.1.51 ‘How then could (another) requisite be procured for the one who shares my cell?’

^Kd.1.26.2 “If the one who shares the cell becomes ill, having got up early he should give tooth-wood, he should give water for rinsing the mouth, he should make ready a seat. If there is conjey^[4] … that place should be swept.

^Kd.1.26.3 “If the one who shares a cell wishes to enter a village^[5] … having washed, a bowl with water is to be given to him. Thinking, ‘He will be returning about now’, he should^[6] make ready a seat, he should set out water for washing the feet, a foot-stool, a foot-stand … ^Vin.1.52 He should offer drinking water to the one who shares his cell.

^{Kd.1.26.4–7} “In whatever dwelling-place one who shares a cell is staying, if that dwelling-place is soiled, it should be cleaned if he is able to do so … ^{Vin.1.53 [7]} … so that the Order could revoke that (formal) act.’

^{Kd.1.26.8–11} “If the robe of one who shares a cell should be washed, the preceptor should explain, saying: ‘Thus should you wash it or he should make an effort, thinking: ‘How then could the robe of the one who shares my cell be washed?’ If the robe-material of one who shares a cell should be made up, the preceptor should explain, saying: ‘Thus should you make it up’, or … ‘How then could the robe-material of the one who shares a cell’ … ‘Thus should you boil it or … ‘How then could dye be boiled for the one who shares my cell?’ If the robe of the one who shares a cell should be dyed … ‘Thus should you dye it’, or … ‘How then could the robe of the one who shares my cell be dyed?’ When he is dyeing ^BD.4.69 the robe, he should dye it properly, turning it again and again, nor should he go away if the drips have not ceased. If the one who shares a cell becomes ill, he should tend him as long as life lasts; he should wait until he recovers.”
