Theravāda Collection on Monastic Law The Small Division The chapter on the group of seven hundred One hundred years after the Buddha had attained final extinguishment, the Vajjian monks of Vesālī proclaimed ten practices as allowable: the salt-in-horn practice; the two-fingerbreadths practice; the next-village practice; the many-monasteries practice; the consent practice; customary practices; the unchurned practice; palm-juice drinking; sitting mats without borders; and gold, silver, and money. At that time Venerable Yasa of Kākaṇḍa was wandering in the Vajjian country, when he arrived at Vesālī. There he stayed in the hall with the peaked roof in the Great Wood. Soon afterwards, on the observance day, the Vajjian monks of Vesālī filled a bronze bowl with water and placed it in the midst of the Sangha of monks. Whenever a lay follower of Vesālī came, they said, “Please give a <i lang='pi' translate='no'>kahāpaṇa</i> coin to the Sangha, or half a <i lang='pi' translate='no'>kahāpaṇa</i>, or a <i lang='pi' translate='no'>pāda</i>, or a <i lang='pi' translate='no'>māsaka</i>. The Sangha needs requisites.”
