CHULAVAGGA (THE MINOR SECTION)

FIFTH KHANDHAKA (ON THE DAILY LIFE OF THE BHIKKHUS)

Chapter-36.

Now at that time the Chabbaggiya Bhikkhus followed evil practices such as these--they used to plant [&c., word for word as in the long list at I, 13, I, 2, down to the end].

They told this matter to the Lord Buddha.

'You are not, O Bhikkhus, to follow manifold evil practices. Whosoever does so, shall be dealt with according to the law.'
