[557] Now at that time the bhikkhunīs of the group of six painted the corners of their eyes (avaṅga), applied distinguishing marks to their faces (visesaka), peered out from windows, stood in the light [of the doorway, to be seen], had dancing performed, set up a prostitute [in business], set up a tavern, set up a slaughterhouse, opened a shop, engaged in usury, engaged in trade, kept a male slave, kept a female slave, kept a male worker, kept a female worker, kept an animal, sold greens and leaf-vegetables, and wore felt garments. People looked down upon them, criticized them, and spread it about, saying: "… just like women householders who enjoy sensual pleasures." They reported this matter to the Blessed One. [He said:] "Bhikkhus, a bhikkhunī should not paint the corners of her eyes, should not apply distinguishing marks to her face, should not peer out from a window, should not stand in the light [of the doorway], should not have dancing performed, should not set up a prostitute [in business], should not set up a tavern, should not set up a slaughterhouse, should not open a shop, should not engage in usury, should not engage in trade, should not keep a male slave, should not keep a female slave, should not keep a male worker, should not keep a female worker, should not keep an animal, should not sell greens and leaf-vegetables, and should not wear a felt garment. Whoever should wear one commits an offense of wrong-doing (dukkaṭa)."
