By giving perfect-tasting objects, one becomes loved, just as a sweet taste \[is loved by all\]. By giving (things) that are excellent in their tactile quality one becomes someone whose body is ever youthful and has pleasant sensations that are always perfectly adapted to the seasons \[i.e., cool when it is hot and warm when it is chilly; cf. AKBh(P)(D), 743,23–25\], like the jewel-like wife \[of a universal monarch\].” - [Previous: notes.40](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.ayuhparyantasutra*bo~en-84000.notes.40) - [Next: notes.42](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.ayuhparyantasutra*bo~en-84000.notes.42) - [Up: notes](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.ayuhparyantasutra*bo~en-84000.notes) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.ayuhparyantasutra*bo~en-84000.notes.41](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.agama.ayuhparyantasutra*bo~en-84000.notes.41) · Pramāṇa
