Vinaya — Regras dos Monges (Bhikkhu Vibhaṅga) — Stuffing the cheeks

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 ate stuffing their cheeks. …

2Final ruling
“‘I will not eat stuffing my cheeks,’ this is how you should train.”

3One should not eat stuffing one’s cheeks. If a monk, out of disrespect, eats stuffing one or both cheeks, 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 it is any kind of fruit; if there is an emergency; if he is insane; if he is the first offender.

5The sixth training rule is finished.
