### [6.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2123.6.5)

夫正法所以流布。貴在尊經。福田所以增長。功由齋戒。故捨一飡之供。福紹餘糧。施一錢之資。果超天報。所以福田可重。財累可輕。共樹無遮之會。等招無限之福也。

> Now, the reason the true Dharma spreads lies in esteeming the sūtras. The reason the field of merit increases is due to the efficacy of the fasting precepts. Therefore, renouncing the offering of a single meal causes blessings to inherit surplus provisions; giving the funds of a single coin results in rewards surpassing the heavens. Hence the field of merit is to be valued, while the entanglements of wealth may be taken lightly. Together we establish the unhindered assembly, equally incurring limitless blessings.
