A wood-seller visits the Buddha at
Ñātika and tells him that, in his family, alms are given to various kinds of
monks - forest-dwellers, rag-wearers, arahants, etc.
The Buddha points out to him that though
it is difficult to distinguish the good and bad qualities of monks, yet he
should continue to give alms to the Order. A.iii.391f.
