c9.s8.t4.12

If any family offers him food, pure according to the Mahāyānic restrictions, he is to take his seat and deliver a discourse on religion; and if the food be not pure he is to rise from his seat and depart. A piṇḍacārika bhikṣu must not make comments on the food received, or indulge in any sort of useless talk. He must be always indifferent to what he gets.
