Bhagavā etad avoca:|| ||

"Bhojanaṃ bhikkhave dadamāno dāyako paṭiggāhakānaṃ pañca ṭhānāni deti.

Katamāni pañca?

2. Āyuṃ deti,||
vaṇṇaṃ deti,||
sukhaṃ deti,||
balaṃ deti,||
paṭibhānaṃ deti.|| ||

Āyuṃ kho pana datvā āyussa bhāgī hoti||
dibbassa vā mānusassa vā,||
vaṇaṇaṃ datvā vaṇṇassa bhāgī hoti||
dibbassa vā mānussa vā,||
sukhaṃ datvā sukhassa bhāgī hoti||
dibbassa vā mānusassa vā,||
paṭihānaṃ datvā paṭibhānassa bhāgī hoti||

Bhojanaṃ bhikkhave dada-māno dāyako paṭiggāhakānaṃ imāni pañca ṭhānāni deti" ti.|| ||
