Akitti Jātaka

Jātaka

仏陀と比丘たちを七日間もてなしたサーヴァッティーの寛大な施主を称える語られたジャータカで、仏陀は昔の賢者たちが葉と水だけで生き延びながらも財産を他者と分かち合ったと語る。

See Akitti. It was related at Jetavana, of a generous donor who lived at Sāvatthi. This man invited the Buddha, and during seven days gave many gifts to him and to the monks. On the last day he presented the company of Arahants with all necessaries. The Buddha praised the man’s generosity and told him how wise men of old shared their possessions with others, even when they themselves had nothing to eat but kāra-leaves and water. J.iv.236 ff.
