3.7

[Dao]sheng says: In his external role Vimalakīrti was a householder, which carried the suspicion of stinginess; if he questioned him before giving the food, people might have suspected that. Therefore he first took the bowl and filled it with rice but did not hand it over, fearing that Subhūti, upon getting the bowl, would immediately leave without completing the discourse.
