2.369

The Buddha was in Śrāvastī. The people of the city made offerings and sacrifices for their parents and others at crossroads or in shrines. Bhikṣus who wore rag-robes and begged for alms took and ate it themselves, and the householders criticized them together. The bhikṣus reported this fault to the Buddha, who thereupon formulated this precept.
