Like Mañjuśrī making an offering of a single bowl of modaka sweets to eighty-four thousand monks, all were fully satisfied, and yet it was not exhausted. Furthermore, when a bodhisattva here makes an offering of a single bowl of food to the Buddhas of the ten directions, the implements of food and drink abundantly appear before the Buddhas of the ten directions, just as when hungry ghosts obtain a single mouthful of food from a human, it appears ten million times greater. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 41.27](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.41.27) - [Next: 41.29](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.41.29) - [Up: 41](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.41) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122~en-mt.41.28) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [諸經要集](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.5.25) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.41.28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.41.28) · Pramāṇa
