There are further five matters: first, if someone insists on detaining one for a meal and one cannot report to the master, as soon as the meal is finished one should seek to leave, and not sit until dark. Second, if returning after dark, one must confess one's fault according to the facts. Third, one must not praise oneself in private, saying: 'So-and-so detained only me today for a meal, and there was nothing lacking.' Fourth, one must not say in front of others: 'Today I was going to return for my meal, but so-and-so forced me to stay and eat, making my stomach uncomfortable.' Fifth, upon returning, one should engage in caṅkramaṇa, enter one's room, and contemplate the path; one must not arbitrarily go into others' rooms and talk about worldly affairs.
