(Mv.VII.11.1) [122] “A monk, when the kaṭhina has been spread, goes away to a faraway place, still laying claim to a portion of robe-cloth. When he has gone to the faraway place, the monks ask him, ‘Friend, where did you spend the Rains? Where is your portion of robe-cloth?’(1)

“He says, ‘I spent the Rains in such-and-such residence, and my portion of robe-cloth is there.’

“They say, ‘Friend, go and bring back the robe-cloth. We’ll make the robe for you here.’

“He goes to the (first) residence and asks the monks, ‘Friends, where is my portion of robe-cloth?’

“They say, ‘Friend, here is your portion of robe-cloth. Where will you go?’

“He says, ‘I will go to the residence called such-and-such. There the monks will make a robe for me.’

“They say, ‘Enough, friend. Don’t go. We’ll make the robe for you here.’

“The thought occurs to him, ‘I will make [have them make] this robe right here. I won’t return (to the other monastery).’

“He has the robe made.

“That monk’s kaṭhina-dismantling is reached through (the robe’s) being finished.
