[92] Now at that time scruples (kukkucca) arose in the bhikkhus regarding this or that point: "What, indeed, has been allowed by the Blessed One, and what has not been allowed?" They reported this matter to the Blessed One.
"Bhikkhus, whatever has not been refused by me, saying, 'This is not allowable' — if it conforms with what is unallowable and goes against what is allowable, that is not allowable for you. Bhikkhus, whatever has not been refused by me, saying, 'This is not allowable' — if it conforms with what is allowable and goes against what is unallowable, that is allowable for you. Bhikkhus, whatever has not been allowed by me, saying, 'This is allowable' — if it conforms with what is unallowable and goes against what is allowable, that is not allowable for you. Bhikkhus, whatever has not been allowed by me, saying, 'This is allowable' — if it conforms with what is allowable and goes against what is unallowable, that is allowable for you."
