此经在 Kīṭāgiri 对被称为 Assaji-Punabbasukā 的一群比丘所说：他们讥笑效仿佛陀与虔诚弟子一日一食的做法，佛陀借此强调自己的一切教法皆本于亲证的经验与智慧，理应依教奉行而非妄加戏论。

A discourse taught at Kīṭāgiri to the group of monks known as the Assaji-Punabbasukā, who had ridiculed the practice of eating only one meal a day as the Buddha and his committed disciples did, in which the Buddha insists that all his teachings rest on his own experience and knowledge and must be followed without such carping.
