At one time when the Buddha was staying at Sāvatthī in Anāthapiṇḍika’s Monastery, the monks from the group of six were misbehaving, but when a legal procedure was being done against any one of them, they would object. On one occasion the Sangha had gathered on some business. The monks from the group of six were busy making robes and so they gave their consent to one among them. When the monks saw that only one monk from the group of six had come, they did a legal procedure against him. When he returned to the monks from the group of six, they asked him, “What did the Sangha do?” “It did a legal procedure against me.” “We didn’t give our consent for that. If we had known that a procedure would be done against you, we wouldn’t have given our consent.”
