THE PURE ARE WORTHY OF THE YELLOW ROBE BUT NOT THE IMPURE

He wo is stained (with defilements) without self-control and truthfulness, is not worthy of wearing the yellow robes. 9
He who is purged of all stained, is well-established in morals and endowed with self-cotrol and truth-fulness, is indeed worthy of the yellow robe. 10
1:7 Who is worthy to receive the yellow robe ?
Once, the two chief disciples, the venerable Sāriputta and Venerable Moggallāna, went from Sāvatthi to Rājagaha. There, the people of Rājagaha invited them, with the other bikkhus, to morning meal. On that occasion some hand over a very valuable piece of cloth to the organizer of the almsgiving ceremony. He instructed them to sell it should there be any shortage of found. If there was no shortage, there were to offer it to any one of the bhikkhus they considered deserving of it. It also happened to one of the monks. Since the two chief disciples visited Rājagaha only occasionally, the people though that it would be more appropriate to offer the cloth to Venerable Devadatta as he was a resident of Rājagaha. Thus they made the mistake of offering the cloth to Devadatta.
Devadatta promptly made the cloth into a robe and started wearing it. Then, acertain bikkhu form Rājagaha to Sāvatthi to pay homage to the Buddha, and told him about Devadatta and the robe. The Buddha then said that it was not first time that Devadatta was wearing robe that he did not deserve. The Buddha then related the following story:
Devadatta was an elephant hunter in one of his previous existences. At that time, in a certain forest, there lived a large number of elephants. One day, the hunter noticed that these elephants knelt down to a paccekabuddha on seeing him. Having observed that, the hunter stole the upper part of a yellow robe and covered his body and a hand with it. Then, holding a spear in his hand, he waited for the elephants on their usual route. The elephants came, and mistaking him for a piccekabuddha paid their respects and easily fell prey to the hunter. Thus, one by one, he killed the elephants.
The Bodhisatta( the Buddha-to-be ) who was born as an elephant in the group, was the leader of the herd. Noticing the dwindling number of his heard he decided to investigate and followed his herd at the end of the line. He was alert , and wss therefore able to evade the spear. He caught hold of hunter in his trunk and was about to dash him against the ground. When he saw the yellow robe however, he desisted and spared the life on hunter.
The hunter was wrong in trying to kill under cover of the yellow robe and for committing such an act of depravity. The hunter clearly should not have put on the yellow robe.
By revealing this story, the Buddha explained how Devadatta had misused the yellow robe even in one of his previous births.
