If one obtains new grain, one first gives it to those who keep precepts and are vigorous, and afterward eats it oneself.' Furthermore, there are three methods of giving: first, sending food to a temple is called superior; second, going to the residence to make offerings is called middling; third, preparing food and giving it to beggars upon generating the intention to make offerings is called inferior. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 5.68](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.5.68) - [Next: 5.70](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.5.70) - [Up: 5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.5) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123~en-mt.5.69) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [法苑珠林](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.42.17) — 道世, Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.5.69](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.5.69) · Pramāṇa
