The Buddha was in Rājagṛha. The bhikṣu Kāla was originally a great minister who was well versed in secular customs; whenever there was a wedding in the city, everyone went to consult him. At that time, those who married, meeting with good or bad fortune, would make wishes that Kāla experience pain or pleasure accordingly. Householders criticized and rebuked him, the bhikṣus reported the fault, and the Buddha thereupon formulated the precept.
