Dīgha3

Person

一位婆罗门,因无法满足同侪婆罗门的胃口而心生不满,遂以一钵米饭试探众比丘,见其知足少欲而深感敬佩。

A brahmin. He found he could not satisfy other brahmins, even though he gave five bowls of food to each. One day he went to the vihāra, and, in order to test the monks, served them with only one vessel of rice. Thirty monks partook of it and Dīgha was pleased with their great moderation. AA.i.262 f.
