Ussaṅkita sutta: Suspected

Ussaṅkitasutta

Phāsuvihāravagga

Five reasons why even a good mendicant might be suspected of bad behavior.

“Mendicants, even if a monk is of impeccable character, he might be suspected and distrusted as a ‘bad monk’ for five reasons.

What five? It’s when a monk resorts to prostitutes, widows, voluptuous girls, eunuchs, or nuns for alms.

Even if a monk is of impeccable character, he might be suspected and distrusted as a ‘bad monk’ for these five reasons.”
