Furthermore, the Shansheng jing (Upāsakaśīla-sūtra) says: 'One who has received the precepts should not go to five places: namely, butchers, courtesans, taverns, kings, and the homes of caṇḍālas and the like. There are five kinds of livelihoods that should not be undertaken: namely, selling poison, brewing/tanning, dice gambling, weiqi and liubo, and singing, dancing, and theatrical performance.' Furthermore, the Baoyun jing (Ratnamegha-sūtra) says: 'A person who upholds the precepts is not permitted to go to the household of a precept-breaker to beg for food.'
