Bhojanasutta

Translator: Mahāsaṅgīti Tipiṭaka Buddhavasse 2500

“Bhojanaṁ, bhikkhave, dadamāno dāyako paṭiggāhakānaṁ cattāri ṭhānāni deti.

Katamāni cattāri?

Āyuṁ deti, vaṇṇaṁ deti, sukhaṁ deti, balaṁ deti.

Āyuṁ kho pana datvā āyussa bhāgī hoti dibbassa vā mānusassa vā.

Vaṇṇaṁ datvā … sukhaṁ datvā … balaṁ datvā balassa bhāgī hoti dibbassa vā mānusassa vā.

Bhojanaṁ, bhikkhave, dadamāno dāyako paṭiggāhakānaṁ imāni cattāri ṭhānāni detīti.

Yo saññatānaṁ paradattabhojinaṁ,

Kālena sakkacca dadāti bhojanaṁ;

Cattāri ṭhānāni anuppavecchati,

Āyuñca vaṇṇañca sukhaṁ balañca.

So āyudāyī vaṇṇadāyī,

sukhaṁ balaṁ dado naro;

Dīghāyu yasavā hoti,

yattha yatthūpapajjatī”ti.

Navamaṁ.
