42.40

又處處經云。佛言。中後不食有其五福。一者少婬。二者少臥。三者得一心。四者無有下風。五者身得安隱。亦不作病。是故沙門知福不食。

Furthermore, the Chuchu jing states: "The Buddha said: 'Not eating after midday brings five blessings: first, less lust; second, less sleep; third, attaining one-pointedness of mind; fourth, no flatulence; fifth, the body attains peace and comfort and does not fall ill.' For this reason, śramaṇas know these blessings and do not eat [after midday]."
