For this reason, śramaṇas know these blessings and do not eat \[after midday\]." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 42.39](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.42.39) - [Next: 42.41](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.42.41) - [Up: 42](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.42) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122~en-mt.42.40) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [諸經要集](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.5.90) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.42.40](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.42.40) · Pramāṇa
