The Buddha was in Śrāvastī. In the autumn months, the bhikṣus suffered an aggravation of wind diseases; their bodies became emaciated and developed sores. The Buddha said: 'There are ghee, oil, butter, and honey-fat; in cases of illness, they are permitted to be taken at proper and improper times.' When the Buddha was in Rājagṛha, Pilindavatsa's disciples kept a great abundance of it, overflowing. Renunciants and laypeople criticized and rebuked them, and reported it to the Buddha, who rebuked them and laid down the precept.
