The ācārya or the senior monk supervising the performance of the parjuşaņā during the monsoon sojourn permits, sanctions and allows begging from such households which are inhabited by people who are initiated, faithful, firm and trust-worthy. But the monks are not permitted to ask for things that are not visible (saying)-Oh long-lived one ! Have you this? Have you that ?
---Bhante ! Why has this been said ?'
—(Then) a devoted householder may buy or steal (for serving the monk with).'

A bhiksu performing the parjuşaņā rites during the monsoon sojourn will daily take one meal, anů it is proper to go only once to the householders' residence for begging food and drink and return therefrom at a fixed hour. Permitted exceptions (about taking food more than once) are : if and when the bhikṣu is nursing the ācārya, or if and when he is employed to nurse the teacher, monk or some ailing person, or if he (or she) has not yet developed the mark of a mature age.
