八十一比丘請食食前食後至餘家墮 跋難陀貪積出息。居士負責無以還償。欲因佛力求滅息利。便設飯食請佛及僧。跋難陀為請。請已他行。佛與眾僧先至其舍。以跛難陀不來彼不設供。跛難陀至已然後下食。食未周竟跛難陀先去。佛還精舍欲結戒。晡時集僧。唯難陀不至。至暮方還。佛語諸比丘。跛難陀癡人。今於一日兩時惱僧。若比丘為他請僧。已中前中後不白至餘家者。隨至餘家一一墮。出主人界所𨒬巷一一突。若白而還晚令僧惱者突。因此故餘不請。僧時中前中後悉應白。白義如上。非時中說從三處中入聚落。及還三處。即先白更入聚落。罪悉如上。

Eighty-one: When a monk has been invited to a meal, going to another family before or after the meal is a pāyattika.
Upananda greedily accumulated interest on loans. A householder who owed him had no means to repay it; wishing to rely on the Buddha's spiritual power to cancel the interest, he prepared food and invited the Buddha and the saṃgha. Upananda extended the invitation on his behalf, but after extending the invitation, went elsewhere. The Buddha and the saṃgha arrived at his house first; because Upananda had not arrived, the householder did not serve the offering. Only after Upananda arrived was the food served. Before the meal had fully concluded, Upananda left first. When the Buddha returned to the vihāra, he wished to formulate the precept. At the late afternoon assembly of the saṃgha, only Upananda did not arrive, returning only at dusk. The Buddha said to the monks: "Upananda is a foolish man; today, during two times, he has vexed the saṃgha." If a monk has accepted an invitation to the saṃgha on another's behalf, and goes to another household before or after noon without informing [anyone], for each other household he visits, each time he incurs a pāyattika; and upon stepping outside the host's boundary, for each lane he traverses, each time a duṣkṛta. If he informed [someone] but returns late so as to vex the saṃgha, he incurs a duṣkṛta. For this reason, even when not invited, during the time of the saṃgha, both before and after noon, one should in all cases inform [another]; the meaning of informing is as above. In the improper time, regarding entering the village from the three places and returning to the three places, and then re-entering the village relying on the prior informing: the offenses are all as above.
