When newly-arrived monks said to them, “Please assign us a dwelling,” they replied, “There aren’t any dwellings belonging to the Sangha. We’ve given them to one monk.”

This is the proper conduct in regard to dining halls. Shabbily dressed, improper in appearance, And non-attentive, hasty; Far, too near, long, soon, Just so the alms collector.

That’s where we’ve come from.” “Are you the ones who ejected the resident monk?” “Yes, sir.” “For what reason?” “Without any reason.” The Buddha rebuked them, “Foolish men, it’s not suitable, it’s not proper, it’s not worthy of a monastic, it’s not allowable, it’s not to be done.
