The answer says: 'Because it was not his allotted portion, he did not smell it though close by; now there is a condition by which he can smell it.' \[Seng\]zhao says: The Tathāgata was about to discern the conditions of the fragrant rice, and therefore caused Ānanda to smell it. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 9.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.9.19) - [Next: 9.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.9.21) - [Up: 9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.9) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775~en-mt.9.20) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.9.20](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1775.9.20) · Pramāṇa
