[162] Now at that time much robe-cloth had accrued to a certain bhikkhu, and he wished to give that robe-cloth to his mother and father. They reported this matter to the Blessed One. "Bhikkhus, when he gives with the thought, 'They are my mother and father,' what could I say? Bhikkhus, I allow giving to one's mother and father. But, bhikkhus, a gift given in faith (saddhādeyya) is not to be squandered; whoever should squander it commits an offense of wrong-doing (dukkaṭa)."
