7.1.336

“Now, Venerable Sir, what is the meaning declared of drink and food that has burning embers, has smoke, and is tainted by the fault of combination?”
“Gautama! When a male monk or a female monk, having received acceptable and sought food, drink, delicacies, and savouries, consumes food infatuated, greedy, craving, and attached, that, Gautama, is drink and food that has burning embers.
When a male monk or a female monk, having received acceptable and sought food, drink, delicacies, and savouries, consumes food while causing great displeasure, anger, and weariness, that, Gautama, is drink and food that has smoke.
When a male monk or a female monk, having received acceptable and sought food, drink, delicacies, and savouries, combines it with another substance for the purpose of producing flavour and consumes food, that, Gautama, is drink and food tainted by the fault of combination.
This, Gautama, is declared to be the meaning of drink and food that has burning embers, has smoke, and is tainted by the fault of combination.
Now, Venerable Sir, what is the meaning declared of drink and food that is devoid of burning embers, devoid of smoke, and freed from the fault of combination?”
“Gautama! When a male monk or a female monk, having received acceptable and sought food, drink, delicacies, and savouries, consumes food uninfatuated, ungreedy, uncraving, and unattached, that, Gautama, is drink and food devoid of burning embers.
When a male monk or a female monk, having received acceptable and sought food, drink, delicacies, and savouries, consumes food without causing great displeasure, anger, and weariness, that, Gautama, is drink and food devoid of smoke.
When a male monk or a female monk, having received acceptable and sought food, drink, delicacies, and savouries, consumes food just as it was obtained, that, Gautama, is drink and food freed from the fault of combination.
This, Gautama, is declared to be the meaning of drink and food that is devoid of burning embers, devoid of smoke, and freed from the fault of combination.”
