>On account of this incident the Buddha held a meeting of the Sangha and asked the Venerable Sudinna:
>“Is it true, Sudinna, that you have committed sexual conduct with your ex-wife?” When he replied: “Yes, Venerable Sir,” the Buddha rebuked Sudinna in the following manner:
>“You empty man, who have failed to attain the Path and Fruition, achieving nothing! It (i.e. what you have now done) is not befitting a monk! It is no practice of a monk. It is improper. It should not be done! You, good for nothing! Why are you incapable of practising in perfection, in purity for life, the noble practice of the threefold training after receiving ordination in the dispensation the Dhamma and the Vinaya proclaimed so well?
>“You empty man, it is rather better to put your male organ into the mouth of a highly poisonous, severely poisonous snake! But it is no good to put it into the female organ!
>“You empty man, it is better to put your male organ into the mouth of a cobra! But it is no good to put it into the female organ!
>“You empty man, it is better to put your male organ into a heap of embers with glowing and blazing flames that illuminate all around! But it is no good to put it into the female organ!
>Because, empty man, by putting the male organ into the snake’s mouth or into the heap of embers, you will just come to death or you will just suffer almost dying. By putting the male organ into the snake’s mouth or into the heap of embers, you cannot go to the four woeful states of long suffering, of animals, of departed spirits and asurakāyas on destruction of your body. But by so doing with regard to the female organ, empty man, you may go to those woeful states on destruction of your body!”
