At one time the Buddha was staying at Sāvatthī in the Jeta Grove, Anāthapiṇḍika’s Monastery. At that time two monks were traveling through the Kosalan country on their way to Sāvatthī. One monk misbehaved and the other said to him, “Don’t do that! It’s not allowable.” Because of that the first monk became resentful. They then carried on to Sāvatthī. Soon afterwards an association in Sāvatthī was offering a meal to the Sangha. When the second monk had finished his meal and refused an invitation to eat more, the resentful monk brought back some almsfood from his own family. He then said to the other, “Please eat!” “There’s no need. I’m full.” “The almsfood is nice, please eat.” And because he was pressured, he ate the almsfood. The resentful monk then said to him, “Who are you to correct me when you eat food that’s not left over even though you have finished your meal and refused an invitation to eat more?” “Shouldn’t you have told me?” “Shouldn’t you have asked?”
