They came late and Pāñcālī had taken her food already. The Akṣayapātra (the never-empty pot) could not be invoked to produce anything that day and Pāñcālī was greatly agitated and worried. She prayed to Śrī Kṛṣṇa for succour and Śrī Kṛṣṇa also coming hungry searched in the pot for something to eat and finding a bit of spinach sticking to the sides of the pot grabbed it with avidity and ate it. The guests felt as if they had enjoyed a sumptuous feast and left the place well pleased. (See para XII under Duryodhana). - [Previous: c8.1724](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c8.1724) - [Next: c8.1726](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c8.1726) - [Up: c8](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c8) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c8.1725](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c8.1725) · Pramāṇa
