They told the Buddha. “After doing the invitation ceremony with the nuns, a nun should do the invitation ceremony with the monks. If she doesn’t, she should be dealt with according to the rule.” The nuns did their invitation ceremony together with the monks. They made a racket. They told the Buddha. “The nuns shouldn’t do their invitation ceremony together with the monks. Any nun who does commits an offense of wrong conduct.” On one occasion when the nuns did the invitation ceremony before the meal, they did not finish until after the time for eating. They told the Buddha. “I allow the nuns to do the invitation ceremony after the meal.”
