Kalpa Sūtra

In the course of the parjuşaņā during the monsoon sojourn, a monk as well as a nun is required to indicate, as he/she proceeds, the direction and subdirection whither he/she repairs for begging food and drink. ---'Bhante! Why has it been said like that?' Because the revered monks (also nuns) often practice hard penances during the monsoons. Being weak or exhausted, such a penancing monk drops down or becomes senseless on the way; then other monks keep their eyes in that direction or subdirection (to help him).

In the course of the parjuşaņā during the monsoon sojourn, a monk or a nun may walk over a distance of four or five yojanas (12 to 15 miles) and return; but he/she is not permitted to pass the night there.
