### [91.29](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.91.29)

述曰。既受齋已。若欲解齋要待明相出時始得食粥。不爾破齋。何名明相。如薩婆多論云。明相有三種色。若日照閻浮提樹。則有黑色。若照樹葉。則有青色。若過樹葉。則有白色。於三色中白色為正。始得解齋食其粥也。

> The commentary states: Having received the fast, if one wishes to conclude the fast, one must wait until the appearance of dawn light before one is permitted to eat gruel. Otherwise, one breaks the fast. What is called the dawn light? As the \*Sarvāstivāda-śāstra\* says: The dawn light has three kinds of colours. When the sun shines on the jambu trees, there is black. When it shines on the tree leaves, there is blue-green. When it passes beyond the tree leaves, there is white. Among the three colours, white is the correct one; only then is one permitted to conclude the fast and eat the gruel.
