Akitti Jātaka

Jātaka

讲述古代智者即使仅以野叶清水维生仍与人分享所有的本生故事,是佛陀为称许舍卫城一位一连七日供养佛陀及僧众的施主所说。

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.
