瑜伽師地論略纂 16.93

- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [16.93](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1829.16.93)

論云「又有長壽諸有情類若不得食，非時中夭」者，謂龍等，或經劫等，皆由食住，非由餘法故。　四念住配四食等，如理思惟。

> Regarding the treatise's statement, "Furthermore, there are long-lived sentient beings who, if they do not obtain food, meet an untimely and premature death": this refers to nāgas and the like, whose lifespans may span eons and the like, all subsisting on food and not due to any other factor. The matching of the four smṛtyupasthānas to the four nutriments and so forth should be reflected upon according to principle.
