92.34

'The hall of flesh you saw was a person in hell. In the time of Kāśyapa Buddha, he was a renunciant who lacked the five virtues. Managing the kitchen for the Saṃgha, he first ate the exquisite and fine food himself or took it to give to laypeople, giving only the leftover food to the Saṃgha. Therefore, he suffers the torments of hell without ceasing down to the present day.'
