He invited the monk Shanfa to a meal. Being slightly dissatisfied, \[the monk\] dropped a hint, saying: 'The taste of the food is very good, only the sesame dregs are lacking.' Having touched upon what was taboo, the elder was displeased. The Buddha thereupon formulated a precept." (Whenever attending an invitation, one must first inquire about what is taboo in the host's household.) The Mahāsāṃghika-vinaya says: "At the house offering a meal, take care not to laugh loudly, talk together in whispers, or rashly converse on worldly matters." The Fayuan \[zhulin\] says: "Nowadays one sees monks at the banquets of households in mourning laughing and talking freely, conversing on worldly affairs; this is truly ridiculed by the vulgar, and humane persons should avoid it." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.440](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127.1.440) - [Next: 1.442](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127.1.442) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127~en-mt.1.441) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127.1.441](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2127.1.441) · Pramāṇa
