Evaṃ attānaṃ sammannitvā āyasmā upāli uṭṭhāyāsanā ekaṃsaṃ cīvaraṃ katvā there bhikkhū vanditvā dhammāsane nisīdi dantakhacitaṃ bījaniṃ gahetvā, tato mahākassapatthero therāsane nisīditvā āyasmantaṃ upāliṃ vinayaṃ pucchi. ‘‘Paṭhamaṃ āvuso, upāli, pārājikaṃ kattha paññatta’’nti? ‘‘Vesāliyaṃ, bhante’’ti. ‘‘Kaṃ ārabbhā’’ti? ‘‘Sudinnaṃ kalandaputtaṃ ārabbhā’’ti. ‘‘Kismiṃ vatthusmi’’nti? ‘‘Methunadhamme’’ti.

Having thus appointed himself, the Venerable Upāli, rising from his seat and arranging his robe over one shoulder, paid homage to the senior bhikkhus, sat down on the Dhamma seat holding an ivory-inlaid fan, and then Mahākassapa Thera, sitting on the elder's seat, questioned the Venerable Upāli on the Vinaya: “Reverend Upāli, where was the first pārājika laid down?” “In Vesālī, venerable sir.” “Concerning whom?” “Concerning Sudinna, the son of Kalanda.” “On what subject?” “On sexual intercourse.”
