2.32

昔如來滅後數百年。有傳法聖僧僧伽耶舍。甞游海邊見一住處。堂閣嚴飾眾事奇妙眾僧滿中。經行禪念日至鳴鐘集堂。食訖所有肴膳變成膿血。鉢器相打頭面破壞。血污身衣。而作是言。何為惜食今受此苦耶。舍前問。答言。長老我等先身迦葉佛。時同止一寺見客僧來。心生忿恚。藏惜飲食不分與之。由此慳惜。今受此苦耶。舍聞之生大怖畏。如是觀察俄登聖果。

Anciently, several centuries after the Tathāgata's parinirvāṇa, there was a holy monk who transmitted the Dharma, named Saṅghayaśas. He once traveled to the seashore and saw a dwelling. Its halls and pavilions were adorned and all its affairs were wondrous, filled with monks. They engaged in walking meditation and dhyāna, and when noon came, they rang the bell and gathered in the hall. When they finished eating, all the provisions turned into pus and blood. Their bowls struck against one another, their heads and faces were battered, and blood defiled their bodies and robes. They said: 'Why did we begrudge food, so that now we suffer this torment?' Saṅghayaśas stepped forward and asked them. They replied: 'Elder, in our previous lives at the time of Kāśyapa Buddha, we resided together in a monastery. Seeing visiting monks arrive, anger arose in our hearts; we hid and begrudged food and drink, not sharing with them. Because of this stinginess, we now suffer this torment.' Hearing this, Saṅghayaśas felt great fear. Observing in this manner, he shortly attained the holy fruit.
