This clarifies that Ajātaśatru previously asked whether the father-king was alive, and now next the gatekeeper replied. From 'he addressed the great king, "The great consort of the state..."' downward, it directly clarifies the queen consort secretly offering food to the king. Once the king obtained food, food could prolong life. Although many days had passed, the father's life still remained. This was the queen consort's intention, not the fault of the gatekeeper. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2.47](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1753.2.47) - [Next: 2.49](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1753.2.49) - [Up: 2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1753.2) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1753~en-mt.2.48) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1753.2.48](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1753.2.48) · Pramāṇa
