CHULAVAGGA (THE MINOR SECTION)
FIFTH KHANDHAKA (ON THE DAILY LIFE OF THE BHIKKHUS)
Chapter-15.
1. Now at that time the Bhikkhus, when naked, saluted one another, and received salutes; did service to one another, and received services; gave to one another, and accepted; ate, both hard food and soft; tasted; and drank.
They told this matter to the Lord Buddha.
'A man, O Bhikkhus, when naked, is not to give salutations, nor receive them; is not to do services, nor to accept them; is not to give, nor to receive; is not to eat either hard or soft; is not to taste; is not to drink. Whosoever does so, shall be guilty of a dukkata.'
