PāliPali
At one time the Buddha was staying at Sāvatthī in the Jeta Grove, Anāthapiṇḍika’s Monastery. At that time the monks from the group of six ate stuffing their cheeks. … One should not eat stuffing one’s cheeks. If a monk, out of disrespect, eats stuffing one or both cheeks, he commits an offense of wrong conduct. if it is unintentional; if he is not mindful; if he does not know; if he is sick; if it is any kind of fruit; if there is an emergency; if he is insane; if he is the first offender. The sixth training rule is finished.
