Displeased, the monks did not delight in the Blessed One's words.

It is a really engaging sutta, if it’s the end of the mulapariyaya which you’re citing. How often does that get said in other texts, in other canons? Do we know?

Interestingly, "na te bhikkhū bhagavato bhāsitaṃ abhinandunti" appears only in the Mūlapariyāya Sutta, no where else in the Pāli Canon. It's strangely absent from the Āgama/Taishō parallels, which instead read: "[彼]諸比丘聞[佛/世尊]所說歡喜[奉行/而樂]."

A little help here please. What were the monks displeased with?

Ṭhānissaro Bhikkhu summarizes a commentarial note that these monks were formerly philosophers of the Sāṁkhya school who were displeased at the Buddha's rejection of their philosophy of categories for experience.

"They had hoped to hear his contribution to their project, but instead they hear their whole pattern of thinking & theorizing attacked as ignorant & ill-informed." Full sutta and notes available here for reference: https://www.accesstoinsight.org/tipitaka/mn/mn.001.than.html …
