Vinaya — Regras dos Monges (Bhikkhu Vibhaṅga) — Putting whole hand in mouth

1Origin story
At one time the Buddha was staying at Sāvatthī in the Jeta Grove, Anāthapiṇḍika’s Monastery. At that time the monks from the group of six put their whole hand in their mouths while eating. …

2Final ruling
“‘I will not put my whole hand in my mouth while eating,’ this is how you should train.”

3One should not put one’s whole hand in one’s mouth while eating. If a monk, out of disrespect, puts his whole hand in his mouth while eating, he commits an offense of wrong conduct.

4Non-offenses
There is no offense: if it is unintentional; if he is not mindful; if he does not know; if he is sick; if there is an emergency; if he is insane; if he is the first offender.

5The second training rule is finished.
