什曰:不化作者,恐致欺妄之嫌故。不設常食,以非淨妙,無利益故。欲令此眾見清淨國,又因香飯得弘道意,故因其須食請飯香積也。生曰:常食是生欲法也,除欲食為未曾有食矣。
[Kumāra]jīva says: He did not conjure it up for fear of incurring the suspicion of deceit and falsehood. He did not provide ordinary food because it is neither pure nor wondrous and has no benefit. Wishing to let this assembly see a pure land, and further to inspire the aspiration for the Great Path by means of fragrant rice, he took occasion of their need for food to request rice from Fragrance Accumulated. [Dao]sheng says: Ordinary food is a dharma that generates desire; food that eliminates desire is food such as one has never had before.
