The Vimuttimagga states: "Regarding measured eating, to sever greedy indulgence, one takes up to twenty-one mouthfuls and so forth." As in that "Chapter on the Twelve Dhūtas," there are extensive antidotes. The Mahāprajñāpāramitopadeśa states: "Regarding measured eating: according to what one can eat, leave one-third aside; then the body will be light and secure, and it will be easy to digest without troubles. As stated in a sūtra, Śāriputra said: 'If I eat five or six mouthfuls and supplement it with water, it is enough to support my body.' For people of the Qin, it would be around ten mouthfuls." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.235](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1804.3.235) - [Next: 3.237](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1804.3.237) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1804.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1804~en-mt.3.236) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [大智度論](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.prajnaparamita.pancavimsatisahasrika!mahaprajnaparamitopadesa*zh-kumarajiva.68.146) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1804.3.236](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1804.3.236) · Pramāṇa
