Soon afterwards the monks from the group of six heated oil with too much alcohol. They drank it and became drunk. “You shouldn’t drink heated oil with too much alcohol. If you do, you should be dealt with according to the rule. I allow you to drink heated oil if there is no discernible color, smell, or taste of alcohol.”

The monks had heated much oil with too much alcohol. They did not know what to do with it. “I allow you to determine it for external use.” Pilindavaccha had more heated oil, but there was no vessel for storing it. “I allow three kinds of vessels: made of metal, made of wood, made of fruit.”

At that time Pilindavaccha had arthritis of the hands and feet. “I allow treatment through sweating.” He did not get better. “I allow sweating with herbs.” He still did not get better. “I allow heavy sweating.” He still did not get better. “I allow hemp water.” He still did not get better. “I allow a bathtub.”
