5 thieves in regard to monks

Five thieves in regard to monks:
1. A monk who encourages rich people to join the Order under him, so that he may possess
much wealth for his own temple.
2. A monk untruthfully blames a spiritually advanced monk of a transgression.
3. A monk favors the rich householders who give much to his temple, while ignoring others of
less wealth.
4. A monk who untruthfully boasts of spiritual attainments for the sake of acquiring delicious
and good alms food.
5. A monk who untruthfully boasts of spiritual attainments for the sake of acquiring funds.
(from the Vinaya, Suttavibhanga 3.88-89)
