At one time the Buddha was staying at Sāvatthī in the Jeta Grove, Anāthapiṇḍika’s Monastery.

At that time the monks from the group of six ate shaking their hands. …

“Na hatthaniddhunakaṁ bhuñjissāmīti sikkhā karaṇīyā”ti.

“‘I will not eat shaking my hand,’ this is how you should train.”

Na hatthaniddhunakaṁ bhuñjitabbaṁ.

One should not eat shaking one’s hand.
