Furthermore, the Buddha said: "If there is a bodhisattva who takes delight in dhūta and begging for food, there are ten kinds of benefits. What are the ten? First, destroying the banner of pride. Second, not seeking affection. Third, not acting for the sake of fame. Fourth, dwelling in the noble lineage. Fifth, being free from flattery and deceit, not displaying unusual appearances, and not being arrogant. Sixth, not exalting oneself. Seventh, not slandering others. Eighth, cutting off affection and malice. Ninth, when entering households, not engaging in the giving of Dharma for the sake of food and drink. Tenth, whatever Dharma he expounds is believed and accepted by others."
