The Cullavagga (part of the Vinaya collection) includes accounts of the First and Second Buddhist Councils as well as the establishment of the community of Buddhist nuns. The Cullavagga also elaborates on the etiquette and duties of Bhikkhus....

Cullavagga, Khandaka 3, Chapter 4

1. When he had passed through the probation he told the Bhikkhus, saying, 'I committed, friends, an offence—the first Saṃghādisesa—which for one day I concealed. I asked the ṃg to impose upon me a probation of one day for the offence . . . . concealed. The ṃg imposed . . . . concealed. I have passed through that probation. What now should I do?'

They told this thing to the Blessed One.

'Let then the ṃg impose upon Udāyi the Bhikkhu a Բٳٲ of six days' duration.'

2, 3. [Here follows the 첹峦 as in chapter 1, §§ 2, 3, to the end.]
