introduction
4 + 1 kālika vibhāga (classification related to time) - purpose and period
- yāvakālika↔edibles consumed for the purpose of āhārakicca that can be accepted and consumed from dawn till the end of noon (yāva majjhaṇhikā) of the same day - Aruṇuggamanato yāva ṭhitamajjhanhikā bhuñjitabbato yāvakālikaṃ
- yāmakālika↔essences of certain yāvakālikas consumed for pipāsattha from dawn till the end of the last watch of the night - Aruṇuggamanato yāva yāmāvasānā pipāsāya sati pipāsacchedanatthaṃ pātabbato yāmo kālo assāti. (Khs.Mls. 111.)
- for bhesajjattha also seems ok
- sattāhakālika↔edibles that perform the āhārakicca but are not gross food, that are recognized conventionally as medicine and can be consumed for bhesajjattha for a period of seven days - "Tena upasametabbe ābādhe sati yāva sattāhā paribhuñjitabbato sattāhakālikaṃ." (Khs.Mls. 111.).
- notes:
- was originally food, became yāvajīvika, and then sattāhakālika
- oil extracted from yāvajīvika is also sattāhakālika
- yāvajīvika↔ edibles that do not perform āhārakicca, do not fall under other categories, and are consumed for bhesajjattha that can be kept for life (yāvajīvaṁ)‒Ābādhe sati yāvajīvaṃ pariharitvā bhuñjitabbato yāvajīvikaṃ.
- akālika↔water - it does not fall under any of the above categories; can be consumed as long as it exists
- notes:
- yāvakālika, yāvajīvika and akālika are the first three main categories
- 5 yāma (watches)

- pubbaṇha – from dawn till the beginning of the ṭhitamajjhaṇha
- ṭithamajjhaṇha / majjhaṇha – the noon; the period in which the sun is at the peak of its path in the sky
- note: in dhammasanganī a mahathera is said to have eaten a whole meal at this time, giving the impression that it is a (short) period of time, not a brief moment
- extra notes:
- purebhatta has various meanings according to the context it is used but in general, purebhatta is the time before pacchābhatta - 4 types of pacchābhatta
- from the end of the meal till the end of noon (purebhattaṃ vā pacchābhattaṃ vā kulesu cārittaṃ āpajjeyya)

- notes:
- how time was calculated: using columns (kālatambha) and other signs
- “Jambudīpassa kālena paricchedoti evaṃ kira”. (4Kṅk-pu-ṭ. 93.) some say that kāla applies to the time according to Jambudīpa, which implies that consuming food in Uttarakurudīpa during kāla in Jambudīpa is deemed acceptable, even though it is believed to be vikāla there
- yāma‒from one break of dawn to the next

doing paccavekkhaṇa on it is encouraged, but not needed;
other medicines must be taken after having done paccavekkhaṇa, otherwise it is a dkṭ

if it performs the conventional āhārakicca for humans in a particular region, it should be considered a yāvakālika in that region - if not, yāvajīvika
- pharati \[√phar + a + ti] 2↔pr. (+acc) serves (as); is useful (as)
- vnylkr: some edibles may be yāvakālika in one region and yāvajīvika in another - that is due to the differences in the types of nutrients in the soil (bhūmirasa/paṭhavirasa)
- srtdpn: because in one region it may serve as food, while in others, is may not suit as food
- note: some teachers are of the opinion that if a certain food perform āhārakicca for humans in a certain region, it must be taken as yāvakālika in all other regions
- "neva pharanti na nipphādenti. Ekasmiṃ dese āhārakiccaṃ sādhentaṃ vā asādhentaṃ vā aparasmiṃ dese uṭṭhitabhūmirasādibhedena āhārajighacchāharaṇakiccaṃ asādhentampi vā sambhaveyyāti āha "tesu tesu janapadesū"tiādi." (Vlṅk-ṭ. I. 187.).
- Tesu tesu janapadesūti ettha ekasmiṃ janapade āhārakiccaṃ sādhentaṃ sesajanapadesupi na kappatī"ti vadanti. (Srd-ṭ. III. 65.).

Tesu bahuṃ vatvāpi hi imasmiṃyeva lakkhaṇe ṭhātabbaṃ. Nāmasaññāsu pana vuccamānāsu taṃ taṃ nāmaṃ ajānantānaṃ sammohoyeva hoti, tasmā nāmasaññāya ādaraṃ akatvā lakkhaṇameva dassitaṃ. (V-a. III. 99.).
- is it an offense to consume it for rasatthāya (for the taste), for davatthāya (for fun) or to satisfy the desires of the donors?
- there is no offence, but it is not recommended
- notes: puttamaṁsopanasutta
- what happens if it is kept after midday? and if then consumed? what if it is kept overnight? and if then consumed?

- sannidhi↔stored (food)
- 2 types of yāvakālika
- khādanīya: all yāvakālikas other than pañca bhojana - Khādanīyaṃ nāma pañca bhojanāni yāmakālikaṃ sattāhakālikaṃ yāvajīvikaṃ ṭhapetvā avasesaṃ khādanīyaṃ nāma.

- is baked, steamed, or fried dhañña bhojana?
- jnkbvs: baking, steaming or frying do not make them bhojana
- kummāsa: half-boiled sattadañña
- notes:
- “Addhasinnā ca godhumā – aññeca caṇkādayo; kummāsa-iti katyante - …” (Thomanidhi Sanskrit Dictionary): kummāsa is not something made out of half-boiled rice, but half-boiled rice itself
Jnkbvs: this definition supports raṭṭhapālasuttavaṇṇanā in which raṭṭhapālatthero is offered kummāsa
- general definition: “Kummāso nāma yavehi katakummāso". (V-a. III. 90.) something made with yava grains
Pācittiyādiyojanā: yavehi (plural) shows that all sattadhaññas can be used - “Yavehīti bahuvacanena satta dhaññānipi gahitāni”. (Pc.ay. 71.).
- sattu: "flour" 3 types
- kuṇḍakasattu – broken pubbaṇṇa grains which were heavily roasted
- if slightly roasted or merely heated under the sun, they are not bhojana
- Sattu nāma satta dhaññāni bhajjitvā kato. Antamaso kharapākabhajjitānaṃ vīhīnaṃ taṇḍule katacuṇṇampi kuṇḍakampi sattusaṅgahameva gacchati. Samapākabhajjitānaṃ pana ātapasukkhānaṃ kuṇḍakaṃ vā, ye keci taṇḍulā vā lājā vā, lājehi katabhattasattuādīni vā na pavārenti. (Kṅk. 220-1.).

- modaka- / guḷa- / pūva-sattu: dishes made of cuṇṇasattu without recooking it
- what if sattu is recooked?

"Sattumodakoti sattuṃ temetvā kato apakko. Sattuṃ pana pisitvā piṭṭhaṃ katvā temetvā pūvaṃ katvā pacanti, taṃ na pavāreti." (Vmv-ṭ. II. 29.)
Sattumodakoti sattuyo piṇḍetvā kato apakko sattuguḷo. Vimativinodaniyaṃ pana "sattumodakoti sattuṃ temetvā kato apakko, sattuṃ pana pisitvā piṭṭhaṃ katvā temetvā pūvaṃ katvā pacanti, taṃ na pavāretī"ti vuttaṃ. (Vlṅk-ṭ. I. 222-2.)
e.g: fried rice, baked rice, steamed rice, bread, pasta...are not odana, kummāsa, nor sattu, but khādanīya

if cooked without having strained it ⇒ sāmaṁpāka dkṭ
it is not yāvakālika because ⇒ the kasaṭa was removed
can it be mixed with yāvakālika during kāla? ⇒ no, because it was cooked by an upa

- after accepting a nimantana, consuming piṇḍapāta bhojana received before the nimantana: āpatti
if the donor inquires the reason for the monk not to eat the piṇḍapāta food: the monk should explain “It is because I have been invited by you.”
if the devotee tells the monk to eat what he had obtained: it is ok to do so

background
- Buddha in Jetavana; Kāṇamātā offered her daughter in marriage; she came to visit; Kāṇamātā made cakes as gifts; a monk came and she gave him the cake; he informed another and he also came; she gave more cakes; 3rd time the same; cakes were finished; again she made cakes, again they were offered; again the same for the 3rd time; Kāṇā's husband, tired of waiting for her, married another girl; Tathāgata came, taught the dhamma and both became sotāpannas
a monk approached a caravan for alms; he was given sattu; he informed another monk who also came and got sattu; a third time it happened; the upāsaka prepared more sattu and missed the caravan; travelling alone he got robbed; people criticized; Tathāgata laid the rule

- if 1 bowlful was accepted:
- inform the monks he meet next that he has accepted one bowlful from such-and-such household and not to accept more than 2 bowfuls of pūva / mantha from them
- if 2 were accepted: he should inform that he has accepted one and another had been accepted by another monk, and that the next monk should not accepted more than one
- if 3: tell them not to accept anymore from that house
- where should one go and how should one share the food?
- go to a nearby:
- āsanasālā (sitting hall)
- vihāra (monastery)
- or paṭikkamana (place where bhikkhus frequently congregate)
- ‒going to a place a bit further away where one normally sits, though others places lie closer, is allowed‒
- do not go to:
- an abandoned place
- a distant place in order to share it with friends
- share:
- 1 bowful: need not be shared
- 2 or 3 bowlfuls: keep 1 for oneself, and share the others with the Saṅgha indiscriminately
- what is meant by “dvattipattapūre paṭiggahetvā..." (accepting a bowlful)?
- ...mukhavaṭṭiyā heṭṭhimalekhāya samapūre patte gahetvā”‒accepting filling the bowl to the bottom line of the rim

Now, should a family invite a bhikkhu who has approached to take as many cakes and parched cakes \[as he likes], by a bhikkhu who is wishing \[so] two or three bowls full \[of cakes] can be accepted; if he should accept more than that, \[this is a case] involving expiation. Having accepted two or three bowls full, having taken \[them] away from there, \[it] is to be shared together with \[other] bhikkhus. This is the proper procedure here.

- consuming yāmakālika, sattāhakālika or yāvajīvika for āhārattha after becoming pavārita: dkṭ for each swallow
- 5 factors of pavāraṇā‒Pañcahi upāli ākārehi pavāraṇā paññāyati –
- asanaṃ paññāyati: having swallowed even a tiny bit‒chewed or not‒of one of the pañcabhojana; from then onwards, one is called bhuttāvī (one who has eaten)
- bhojanaṃ paññāyati: having bhojana to be consumed in the next minutes in one's mouth, hands, or bowl, and intending to eat it (vippakatabhojano)
- what if one has bhojana, but intends to eat it somewhere else? is he vippakatabhojana?
- one has food on the hand or bowl, but not in the mouth, and intends to go somewhere else to consume it, give it away, or dispose of it, and rejects bhojana: (pavārita or not?): no
another has food in the mouth, but not in the bowl or on the hands, intends not to swallow the food, but spit it out, and refuses bhojana: (pavārita or not?): no
- hatthapāse ṭhito hoti: the donor being within hatthapāsa (2 1/2 hattha)
- how to measure it?
- hatthapāse ṭhitoti ettha pana
sace bhikkhu nisinno (if the monk is sitting) hoti: āsanassa pacchimantato paṭṭhāya (measured starting from the back of the monk)
- sace ṭhito (standing): paṇhiantato paṭṭhāya (from the back of the heel of the monk)
- sace nipanno (lying): yena passena nipanno, tassa pārimantato paṭṭhāya (from the end of his back)
- dāyakassa nisinnassa vā ṭhitassa vā nipannassa vā ṭhapetvā pasāritahatthaṃ (except the outstretched arm of the donor offering food) yaṃ āsannataraṃ aṅgaṃ (the closest limb), tassa orimantena (to the monk) paricchinditvā (having delimited) aḍḍhateyyahattho (2 1/2 hattha) “hatthapāso”ti veditabbo.
- Tasmiṃ ṭhatvā abhihaṭaṃ paṭikkhipantasseva pavāraṇā hoti, na tato paraṃ.‒for one who rejects what is offered within this range there is pavāraṇā, not further
- if the monk is in a higher place, like a tree, and the donor is on the ground, the hatthapāsa must be measured from the monk’s body part closest to the donor; the donor's head must be within the area of the hatthapāsa
- if the donor is in a higher place, like a tree, and the monk is on the ground, the hatthapāsa must be measured from the monk’s head; the closest body part of the donor, except the offering arm, must be within hatthapāsa

- (kāya) abhiharati: offering bhojana with a bodily gesture
- does verbal offering lead to pavāraṇā?
- vācābhihāra↔verbal offering‒not a factor for pavāraṇa
- kāyābhihāra↔the bodily gesture of offering‒a factor for pavāraṇā
- 4 types of kāyabhihāra
- upanāmana: the act of bringing the food item closer to the monk with the intention of offering it
- if the donor just stands, waiting for the monk to take food, does it lead to pavāraṇā?
- apanāmana: tilting the food towards the monk when it is located on the ground or some stand
- donor A, with a patta on his hands, lap, stand, or ground, offers rice without any gesture to monk B who rejects it: no pavāraṇā
the same, but the donor offers tilting the patta: pavāraṇā
- onamana: when a donor is carrying food on his head, his act of lowering the food and slightly bending towards the recipient intending to offer it is onamana
- ukkhipana / uddharaṇa (lifting the food intending to offer it)
- dūtena pesana kathā
- bk A sends food to bk B by bk C saying "take"; bk C stands silently in front of B who rejects: no pavāraṇā (because of A being far away, and C standing silently)
if C says "take": pavāraṇā (but some teachers and srtdpn say that it is only so if C does kāyābhihāra)
- Therāsane nisinno thero dūre nisinnassa daharabhikkhussa pattaṃ pesetvā "ito odanaṃ gaṇhāhī"ti vadati, gaṇhitvā pana gato tuṇhī tiṭṭhati, daharo "alaṃ mayha"nti paṭikkhipati, na pavāreti. Kasmā?

- why does the thera being far away make a difference? #q🙋🏼♂
- parivesana kathā
- the donor holds a container of bhojana on one hand and offers it with a spoon on the other hand; he enters the hatthapāsa intending to offer (abhihāra or not?): abhihāra
the monk rejects: pavāraṇā
donor A holds the container while donor B just touches it; donor A enters hatthapāsa intending to offer and offers (abhihāra or not?): abhihāra (holder and offerer are the same)
the monk rejects: pavāraṇā
donor B holds the container while donor A offers; entering the hatthapāsa intending to offer (abhinihāra or not?): no, only when kāyābhihāra is done‒e.g.: the bhojana is taken with the spoon and lifted (ukkhipana)
the monk rejects: not pavāraṇā
while a donor offers to monk A, monk B, sitting nearby, covers his patta: no pavāraṇā, since the offering was intended to monk A
- Anantarassa bhikkhuno bhatte diyyamāne itaro pattaṃ hatthehi pidahati, pavāraṇā natthi. Kasmā? Aññassa abhihaṭe paṭikkhittattā. (V-a. III. 93.).
- patikkhepo paññāyati: refusal by the bhikkhu‒2 types
- kāyapaṭikkhepa (bodily refusal): any bodily action intended on refusing‒even just looking angrily at the donor
- vācāpaṭikkhepa (verbal refusal): saying “Enough”, “I don’t take”, “Do not serve” or “Go away”, etc intending to refuse
- is saying "Please serve having pounded" paṭikkhepa?
- mahāsummatthera: paṭikkhepa, since the intention was to stop the serving (prioritizing the intention)
- mahāpadumatthera: no, as the monk asked the donor to serve, not to stop (prioritizing the wording)
- is saying "Please, wait" and asking another monk "Āvuso, please bring a plate" paṭikkhepa?
- mhsmtr: paṭikkhepa, as the donor’s arrival (gamana) was stopped initially
- mhpdmth (preferred): no; his argument is “Where does the donor arrive? What is his arrival like? Is there pavāraṇā to one who takes?
- what does it mean? #q🙋🏼♂
- what if the donor does not see / understand the refusal? #q🙋🏼♂
- after pavāraṇā
- 3 ways a monk could eat yāvakālika after pavāraṇā till noon / majjhaṇha of that day
- eating‒even newly offered food‒without changing the posture (iriyāpatha) in which pavāraṇā occurred
- 5 iriyāpathas here
- sitting, standing, walking, lying and squatting
- note: changing directions does not break the posture; while lying, one may roll in the same location, but not to another location; a short stool may be given to one squatting
- eating vinayakammātiritta
- eating gilānātiritta
- anatiritta bhojana↔non-leftover yāvakālika
- atiritta bhojana↔leftover yāvakālika‒either vinayakammātiritta or gilānātiritta (not leftover food that remains after dāna)
- 2 types of atiritta bhojana
- vinayakammātiritta: food that is made leftover through a minor vinayakamma
- gilānātiritta: leftover food from what is brought for or consumed by a sick monk
- 8 characteristics of atiritta (7 for vinayakammātiritta and 1 for gilānātiritta)
- kappiyakataṃ hoti: it must be allowable; if bhūtagāma / bījagāma, it must be be made allowable by one of the five samaṇakappa
- paṭiggahitakataṃ hoti: it must have been properly accepted‒the pavārita monk cannot accept it intending to eat it (dkṭ), only intending to make it atiritta (anāpatti)
- hatthapāse kataṃ hoti: pavārita and vinayakamma monk must be within hatthapāsa
- uccāritakataṃ hoti: it must be served by the pavārita monk to the monk who is going to perform the vinayakamma
- bhuttāvinā kataṃ hoti: vinayakamma monk must be bhuttāvī
- if he is bhuttāvī from eating his own food, it seems unnecessary for him to eat the food of the pavārita monk
- bhuttāvinā pavāritena āsanā avuṭṭhitena kataṃ hoti: if vinayakamma monk is also pavārita, he must not have broken his posture
- "Alametaṃ sabba"nti vuttaṃ hoti: this must be said
note: 2 possible meanings‒"this food is enough for me" (preferred), or "this food is enough for you"
- gilānātirittaṃ hoti: (definition)
- atiritta vinayakamma
- pavārita monk takes kappiya paṭiggahita food, enters the hatthapāsa of another monk (B), and while holding it doing uccārita, says: "atirittaṁ karotha, bhante"
B takes at least a grain of rice, eats it (bhuttāvī), hands the bowl back, saying: "alametaṁ sabbaṁ"
that food becomes vinayakamma atiritta
- note:
- B must be bhuttāvī, so if he isn't, he must eat at least a little (normally done); but if he has already eaten from his bowl, he need not eat at all
- if B eats from one container, he need not eat from other containers if they need vinayakamma
- could one become pavāraṇā during the vinayakamma? #q🙋🏼♂
- if one has eaten, but broken the posture, is one still bhuttāvī?
practical tips
- it seems that monks did not used to consume 2 meals; maybe porridge or sweets in the early morning;
practical ways of avoiding pavāraṇā‒
- get everything offered and then serve oneself
- rejecting or covering the bowl before the donor enters the hatthapāsa
- allowing the donor to serve
āpatti
- pavārita monk changes posture and accepts anatiritta food intending to eat it: dkṭ
consuming it: pc for every swallow
if he accepts yāmakālika, sattāhakālika or yāvajīvika for āhārattha: dkṭ
consuming it: dkṭ for every swallow
anāpatti

- can the monk who does the vinayakamma later eat that same food?
- no, because he has refused it (alametaṁ sabbaṁ)
- note: this is an argument for the meaning of the sentence being this is enough "for me", not "for you"
- how to do the vinayakamma with multiple vessels?
- multiple vessels need multiple kammas
- who can eat vinayakammātiritta food?
- any monk but the one who did the vinayakamma

sannidhikārakasikkhāpadaṃ
background
- Buddha in Jtvn; V. Bellaṭṭhasīsa (V. Ānanda's teacher) brought sukkhakura and had novices dry it, store it, and offer it to him when he needed; he went piṇḍapāta only once every few weeks; Buddha reprimanded him and laid down the rule
description
- what should be done with surplus yāvakālika and yāmakālika?
- nirāpekkhadāna: give it away to anupa without expectation of getting it back
- or anapekkhavissajjana: relinquish the paṭiggahaṇa without expectation
- sannidhikāraka / sannidhikāra↔a yāvakālika or yāmakālika that was accepted and kept overnight
“Sannidhikārameva sannidhikārakaṃ. Paṭiggahetvā ekarattaṃ vītināmitassetaṃ adhivacanaṃ”.
- collecting a sannidhikāraka item intending to consume it: dkṭ
consuming it: pācittiya for every swallow
- pcpāḷi: Khādissāmi bhuñjissāmīti paṭiggaṇhāti (collecting) āpatti dukkaṭassa
- here, paṭiggaṇhāti means collecting, since it is already accepted
- Sannidhikārakanti kāro karaṇaṃ kiriyāti atthato ekaṃ, sannidhi kāro assāti sannidhikāraṃ, sannidhikārameva sannidhikārakaṃ, paṭiggahetvā ekarattiṃ vītināmitassetaṃ nāmaṃ. Tasmā evaṃ sannidhikataṃ yaṃkiñci yāvakālikaṃ vā yāmakālikaṃ vā ‘Ajjhoharissāmī’ti gaṇhantassa paṭiggahaṇe dukkaṭaṃ, ajjhohāre ajjhohāre pācittiyaṃ. (Kṅk. 225.).
- Paṭiggaṇhāti āpatti dukkaṭassāti evaṃ sannidhikataṃ yaṃkiñci yāvakālikaṃ vā yāmakālikaṃ vā ajjhoharitukāmatāya gaṇhantassa paṭiggahaṇe tāva āpatti dukkaṭassa. (V-a. IV. 104.).
- Paṭiggahaṇeti gahaṇameva sandhāya vuttaṃ. Paṭiggahitameva hi taṃ, puna paṭiggahaṇakiccaṃ natthi. Teneva "ajjhoharitukāmatāya gaṇhantassa paṭiggahaṇe"ti vuttaṃ. Mātikāṭṭhakathāyaṃ (kaṅkhā. Aṭṭha. Sannidhikārakasikkhāpadavaṇṇanā) pana "ajjhoharissāmīti gaṇhantassa paṭiggahaṇe"icceva vuttaṃ. (Srd-ṭ. III. 67.).
- how to prevent an accepted item from becoming sannidhi?
- its paṭiggahaṇa nature (the nature of having been properly accepted) must be abandoned by either pariccajana (nirāpekkhadāna) or anapekkhavissajjana (relinquishing without expectation of getting it back)
- paṭiggahaṇa
- the nature of having been properly accepted with kāya or kāyapaṭibaddha
- paṭiggahita
- the edible that has been properly accepted with kāya or kāyapaṭibaddha (and other conditions as well)
- appaṭiggahita
- the edible that has not been properly accepted with kāya or kāyapaṭibaddha; it can be one's belonging or not
- pariccajana
- the giving away of the yāva- or yāma-kālika to an anupa
- 2 types of pariccajana (dāna)
- sāpekkhadāna: giving it to an anupa with the expectation of getting it back‒it does not abandon the paṭiggahaṇa
- yāva- or yāma-kālika is given away with sāpekkhadāna and is stored over night: sannidhi, because the paṭiggahaṇa was not removed
receiving such item from an anupa the following day intending to eat it: dkṭ
consuming it: pc for every swallow
- can arahats store food for future use?
- no, it is not possible; V. Bellaṭṭhasīsa gave it away, but expecting to consume it when needed
- nirapekkhadāna: giving it to an anupa without expectation of getting it back‒it does abandon the paṭiggahaṇa
- receiving an edible that was sannidhi and given away with nirāpekkhadāna: anāpatti
consuming it: anāpatti
giving nirāpekkhadāna knowing one might / will get it back: no problem, it is still nirāpekkha
if expectation arises after doing the dāna: no problem, it is still nirāpekkha
- vissajjana↔the relinquishing of the paṭiggahaṇa of a yāva- or yāma-kālika
- anapekkhavissajjana
- the mental giving up of the paṭiggahaṇa of the yāma- or yāva-kālika, intending not to consume it based on the present paṭiggahaṇa
- doing anapekkhavissajjana, receiving the yāma- or yāva-kālika on a later occasion, and consuming it: anāpatti (srtdpn)
- Yaṃ paṭiggahetvā apariccattameva hi dutiyadivase na vaṭṭatīti ettha paṭiggahaṇe anapekkhavissajjanena anupasampannassa nirapekkhadānena vā vijahitapaṭiggahaṇaṃ pariccattameva hotīti "apariccatta"nti iminā ubhayathāpi avijahitapaṭiggahaṇameva vuttaṃ. Tasmā yaṃ parassa pariccajitvā adinnampi sace paṭiggahaṇe nirapekkhavissajjanena vijahitapaṭiggahaṇaṃ hoti, tampi dutiyadivase vaṭṭatīti veditabbaṃ. (Srd-ṭ. III. 67.).
- does anapekkhavissajjana suffice to avoid sannidhi?
- srtdpn: yes, there is no sannidhi and it can be consumed on another day after being offered
- note:
- vmtvndn: no
- some Myanmar teachers do not like srtdpn's idea
- it avoids sannidhi, but for it to be consumed the next day, it has to be nirapekkhadāna based on the fact that when one gives the bowl to an anupa to wash, if food is left in the bowl and gets mixed with next day's food, it is a pc
- whose idea is this? #q🙋🏼♂
- if food is left in the bowl, mixed with next day's food, and one consumes it: pc
- is giving the bowl to an anupa to wash considered anapekkhavissajjana or nirāpekkhadāna? #q🙋🏼♂
- pariccatta / vijahitapaṭiggahaṇa↔yāma- or yāva-kālika of which the paṭiggahaṇa was relinquished‒either by nirapekkhadāna or anapekkhavissajjana (srtdpn-ṭ)
- apariccatta / avijahitapaṭiggahaṇa↔yāma- or yāva-kālika of which the paṭiggahaṇa was not relinquished
- Sayaṃ paṭiggahetvā apariccattameva hi dutiyadivase na vaṭṭatīti ettha paṭiggahaṇe anapekkhavissajjanena anupasampannassa nirapekkhadānena vā vijahitapaṭiggahaṇaṃ pariccattameva hotīti "apariccatta"nti iminā ubhayathāpi avijahitapaṭiggahaṇameva vuttaṃ.
- note: the words pariccajana and vissajjana are interchangeable; here, it follows sāratthadīpanī's usage
- santaka appaṭiggahita (unaccepted belonging)↔food that belongs to a monk, but is not paṭiggahita (not properly accepted with kāya or kāyapaṭibaddha)
- when one is offered food that can be kept for a long time, how can one make it a santaka appaṭiggahita?
- the monk should hand it over to an anupa without touching it; it can then be properly accepted and consumed on later days
- can a monk have santaka appaṭiggahita food moved, given away, etc?
- yes, but not by touching it
- does santaka appaṭiggahita become sannidhi?
- no, because it does not have the paṭiggahaṇa nature
- antovuttha↔santaka appaṭiggahita yāma- or yāva-kālika that was stored overnight in a vāsāgāra of a bhikkhu(s), or of the saṅgha
- consuming antovuttha: dkṭ for every swallow
if santaka appaṭiggahita is stored overnight in an unallowable place: antovuttha
if the ownership is given to anupa and it is stored in an unallowable place: not antovuttha
- anivāsageha↔a building that was not built as a dwelling place; e.g.: uposathāgāra
- Vihāraṃ ṭhapetvāti upasampannānaṃ vāsatthāya katagehaṃ ṭhapetvāti attho. Gehanti nivāsagehaṃ, tadaññaṃ pana uposathāgārādi sabbaṃ anivāsagehaṃ catukappiyabhūmivimuttā pañcamī kappiyabhūmi. Saṅghasantakepi hi etādise gehe suṭṭhu parikkhittārāmattepi abbhokāse viya antovutthādidoso natthi. Yena kenaci channe, paricchanne ca sahaseyyappahonake bhikkhusaṅghassa nivāsagehe antovutthādidoso, na aññattha. Tenāha "yaṃ panā"tiādi. (Vmv-ṭ. II. 190.).
- 2 ways to deal with santaka appaṭiggahita
- to keep the ownership, but have an anupa store it in an allowable place (kappiyabhūmi)
- to give the ownership to an anupa; the anupa can store it anywhere
- is it ok to do so having the expectation of getting it later?
- yes, because the monk's ownership is broken, and the item belongs to the anupa, whose properties do not become antovuttha
- this looks like sāpekkhadāna, but here the item is appaṭiggahita
- if the item were paṭiggahita and one gave it away with sāpekkha, the paṭiggahaṇa would not be broken and it would become sannidhi; but here, the item is appaṭiggahita, so a sāpekkhadāna works
- giving an antovuttha as a sāpekkhadāna, receiving it back and consuming it: it loses the antovuttha status and can be consumed
giving a paṭiggahita yāva- or yāma-kālika on the following day (sannidhi) as a sāpekkhadāna, receiving it back and consuming it: āpatti
- Anupasampannassa dātabbo assātiādinā akappiyakuṭiyaṃ vutthampi (when kept in an akappiyakuti) anupasampannassa dinne (when given to an anupa) kappiyaṃ hoti (becomes allowable), sāpekkhadānañcettha vaṭṭati (can give with expectation), paṭiggahaṇaṃ viya na hotīti dasseti (it is not like paṭiggahaṇa). (Vmv-ṭ. II. 190.).
- which āpatti? #q🙋🏼♂
- bhūmis in which santaka appaṭiggahita can be stored in (1 akappiya and 5 kappiya)
- 1 akappiyabhūmi (prohibited buildings)
- vāsāgāra (dwelling place) of a bhikkhu(s) / the saṅgha: becomes antovuttha
- 5 kappiyabhūmi (allowed buildings)
- saṅghika / puggalika anivāsageha (vmtvndn-ṭ): a building that was not build as a dwelling place for a monk(s), or the saṅgha
- ussāvanantikā: a building made as a kappiyakuṭi to store food by a vinayakamma in which the placement of the first stone / pillar has to be done simultaneously with the recital of the sentence
- gonisādikā: a kuṭi in an aparikkhitta monastery (not bounded)
- go from cow: not allowing cows to enter
- note: the kuṭi being unprotected is better in this case, to discourage the storing of food
- gonisādikā duvidhā – ārāmagonisādikā, vihāragonisādikāti. tāsu yattha neva ārāmo na senāsanāni parikkhittāni honti, ayaṃ "ārāmagonisādikā" nāma. yattha senāsanāni sabbāni vā ekaccāni vā parikkhittāni, ārāmo aparikkhitto, ayaṃ "vihāragonisādikā" nāma.
- gahapati (5 types)
- a dwelling belonging to a householder
- a dwelling built or being built for monks / saṅgha, but still unoffered, and still belonging to the donor (vmtvndn)
- a dwelling offered by a householder as a kappiya kuṭi
- note: legality is not what counts here; if the donor offers it verbally, it is enough
- for bhikkhus: a vāsāgāra of bhikkhunīs
- for bhikkhunīs: a vāsāgāra of bhikkhus
- "Saṅghikaṃ vā puggalikaṃ vā"ti idaṃ kiñcāpi bhikkhunīnaṃ sāmaññato vuttaṃ, bhikkhūnaṃ pana saṅghikaṃ puggalikañca bhikkhunīnaṃ, tāsaṃ saṅghikaṃ puggalikañca bhikkhūnaṃ gihisantakaṭṭhāne tiṭṭhatīti veditabbaṃ. (Vmv-ṭ. II. 190.).
- sammuti: a building that was made as a kappiyakuṭi through a vinayakamma
- extra notes:
- kuṭi offering
- "yathā sukhaṁ paribhuñjati"‒can be used according to one's wish
- kuṭis in iit were offered with yathāsukhaṁ paribhuñjati
- the intention of the donor is what counts during the donation, if they say "saṅghassa dema" but they intend it to be, say, bhikkhunī saṅgha's, it is so
- extra notes:
- related story: V. Karavikatissa's advice
- it seems that, according to the story, if it is antovuttha and kept outside the kuṭi, it would become allowable, but this is not discussed
- sannidhikāraka in the bowl
- if remnants of the previous day's food are mixed with the following day's food and consumed: pc for every swallow
- why is it an offense, if the food was pariccatta on the previous day?
- ancient gaṇṭhipadas: it doesn't lose the paṭiggahaṇa; it is not properly relinquished, so it becomes sannidhi
- Yadi evaṃ "patto duddhoto hotī"tiādīsu kasmā āpatti vuttāti? "paṭiggahaṇaṃ avissajjetvāva sayaṃ vā aññena vā tucchaṃ katvā na sammā dhovitvā niṭṭhāpite patte laggampi avijahitapaṭiggahaṇameva hotīti tattha āpattī"ti tīsupi gaṇṭhipadesu vuttaṃ. (Srd-ṭ. III. 67.).
- standards for washed bowls
- after washing it, one should fill it with clean water and look for oil slicks, or draw lines in the inner surface with the finger to check for oil lines
- telavaṇṇapatta (bowl with the color of oil): naturally shows lines when touched with the finger‒not taken into consideration
- non-telavaṇṇapatta: lines appear when rubbing a finger on the bowl's surface (not properly washed)
- gaṇṭhikapatta (mended): sineha (oil) goes inside the gaṇṭhika (mendings), oozes out when heated, and gets mixed with the food and is visible (not properly washed)
- mixing kālikas
- in terms of how long it can be consumed for, what is the longest edible item?
- akālika (water), as its time period is not limited by the moment of acceptance and death of the monk
- general principles
- the longer kālika becomes like the shorter one
- only the amount mixed changes
- the day of acceptance remains the same
- water (akālika) only changes the kāla of yāmakālika fruit essences and guḷa
- old yāvajīvika can be mixed with sattāhakālika and consumed for 7 days
- note: in some monasteries, it is considered that because the spoon may be returned back to the pot after mixing, the entire pot is considered to be mixed
- yāma-, sattāha-, yāvajīvika, and akālika mixed with yāvakālika: yāvakālika
sattāha, yāvajīvika, and akālika mixed with yāmakālika: yāmakālika
yāvajīvika and akālika mixed with sattāhakālika: sattāhakālika
akālika mixed with yāvajīvika: yāvajīvika
- yāvakālika fruit essence mixed with water: yāmakālika
guḷa is allowed for: the sick
guḷodaka is allowed for: anyone anytime for any reason (a yāvajīvika that can be consumed for any reason)
10 day-old yāvajīvika mixed with a 3 day-old sattāhakālika:
nature: sattāhakālika

dantaponasikkhāpadaṃ
background
- Buddha in Kuṭāgāra, Vesāli; a sabbapaṁsukūlika monk was living in a cemetery and eating food left on graves (susāna), under trees, or on the entrace of the house made in the cemetery (ummāra); people criticized; rule was laid down; monks had doubt about the dantapona and water; allowance was made
- extra note:
- the Buddha, in some of his past lives as an ascetic, praised eating uncooked food and sustained himself only from what he collected from the ground. But as a leader of the Saṅgha community, he prevented monks from doing so. This shows that practices that maybe beneficial to individuals may not be applicable when it comes to a community.
- what if such practice is not actually beneficial? he practiced all kinds of things, some beneficial, some not #q🙋🏼♂
- ummāra↔masc. threshold; doorway; entrance #\[\[pāḷi vocab (2nd year)]]

accepting with a branch of very small leaves: paṭiggahita
accepting with larger leaves like lotus or banana leaves laid on a surface: paṭiggahita

- according to a jātaka in which the bodhisatta was a blind captain, there is a place in the ocean where the water falls on one niraya and is heated up; it seems to be the reason it gets the salty taste
- dantapona: wooden sticks that are used to clean the teeth and mouth, normally during the morning
- what is meant by mukhadvāra under this rule?
- the pharynx, the entrance to the esophagus (gaḷanāḷikā mukhadvāra)
- this is understood from the anupaññatti of this rule that allows unoffered dantapona inside the mouth
- putting water or unoffered dantapona into the mouth: anāpatti
swallowing it: water: anāpatti; dantapona: pc
swallowing the essence of the unoffered dantapona knowingly: pc
doing so unknowingly: pc
if it is offered: anāpatti
putting any unoffered edible into the mouth: anāpatti

- rajacuṇṇa / raja
- what should be done with a dusty / dirty bowl before going for piṇḍapāta: wash it; if no water, wipe it or get it reoffered by an anupa
if dust falls during piṇḍapāta before one accepts food: reoffer the bowl before accepting food
accepting food with a dusty bowl: vinayadukkaṭa
- extra note:
- there are 8 types of dukkaṭas
- if dust falls into the patta that already contains food during piṇḍapāta: get it reoffered before accepting more food, otherwise vinayadukkaṭa
if the devotee does not hear / ignores the request and offers more food without reoffering the bowl: anāpatti, but then it must be reoffered before accepting more food
what should be done on a windy day (dust storm), when dust keeps falling into the patta: with suddhacitta and ābhoga one should consider to give the food to an anupa, accept food, and give it to the anupa; if received back or out of trust in him (?), it is allowed to consume it
- what does trusting the anupa mean? #q🙋🏼♂
- how to get the patta reoffered?
- bhāsāṭīkā: “paṭiggāhetvā detha” (preferred)
- comm: “paṭiggahetvā detha”
- how to give the patta into which dust has fallen to another upa? inform the upa that the patta should be reoffered before consumption or accepting more food; he should do so
- if the dust is only on the top layer of food (as in gravy): it can be removed and the remanining consumed
if the dust gets deeper into the food: get the bowl reoffered
if there is no anupa: without releasing the bowl, go to where there is an anupa and get it reoffered
if dust falls into the patta from the vessel from which the food is being offered: paṭiggahita

- rain falls into the patta:
-having touched the dirty body / robes: must be offered
-having touched the trees: must be offered
-having rained for 7 days and trees are clean: need not be offered
-falls directly: need not be offered

- accidentaly fallen into bowl
- if food accidentaly falls into the bowl while the donor is stirring the food: need be offered
if it falls from the spoon while the donor is offering: need not be offered
falls while the donor is taking the spoon back: some teachers say ok (srtd-ṭ)
falls from the recipient monk's bowl to the bowl of another monk: need not be offered
a donor is breaking a branch intending to offer it, particles fall from the branch into the bowl: need not be offered
if they fall on the bowl of another monk nearby: need be offered, because he was not the intended recipient

- sharing with anupa
- when offering food to sāmaṇera, one should not touch the sāmaṇera's food;
while doing so, if food is accidentaly taken from the sāmaṇera's bowl: uggahitaka
if it gets mixed with the upa's food: the upa's food becomes uggahitaka
this can be avoided by: getting the sāmaṇera's food offered beforehand
- a monk, holding his food, asks a sāmaṇera to take some and he rejects: it still belongs to the monk and need not be reoffered (paṭiggahita)
if the monks says, “I have already given it to you”: it remains the monk's property as long as it is connected to his body
if the bowl is not connected to the monk's body and the monk says "take it" giving up completely the expectation for it: need be offered
if he doesn't give up the expectation of the entire food and says "take this or that" and the sāmaṇera, with clean hands, takes food; what falls into the sāmaṇera's bowl is: property of the sāmaṇera
REVIEW THE ABOVE; maybe it is not specific food
what remains in the bowl: still belongs to the monk
what the sāmaṇera puts back without having put into his bowl: need not be offered
what the sāmaṇera puts back after having touched his own food: need be offered
food taken by the sāmaṇera but that still remains on his hands: belong to the monk as long as it has not fallen into the sāmaṇera's patta
if the sāmaṇera says "enough" or the monk closes his patta preventing the sāmaṇera from putting it back, the food in the sāmaṇera's hand: becomes appaṭiggahita, need be offered
- if the monk specifies a certain amount (such as one piece of cake) and the sāmaṇera takes it: it becomes sāmaṇera's property (appaṭiggahita) as soon as it is not connected to the remaining food
if some falls back into the monk's bowl: need be offered

- this seems at varience with the previous passage
- while travelling
- appaṭiggahita food is kept on a cart; an upa lifts the wheel to get the cart unstuck: not uggahita because he just intended to lift the wheel, not the food
an upa drives a boat with unoffered food in it, or drags it with the hands: not uggahita
an upa makes an anupa collect some edible: not uggahita
the monk holds the anupa's hand while crossing a river / street: not uggahita
- Bhikkhu paṭiggahaṇārahaṃ bhaṇḍaṃ manussānaṃ yāne ṭhapetvā maggaṃ gacchati, yānaṃ kaddame laggati, daharo cakkaṃ gahetvā ukkhipati, vaṭṭati, uggahitakaṃ nāma na hoti.

III. 116.).
- upa carrying appaṭiggahita for a sāmaṇera
- pattaparivattanakathā
- while traveling, upas carry the sāmaṇera's raw rice, while the sāmaṇeras carry the upa's raw rice; later, the sāmaṇeras cook the upa's raw rice, and add some of their own to meet the needs; what should be done after the food is served?
- a sāmaṇera should offer his patta to the senior upa, take the senior's patta and offer it to the 2nd most senior upa, take the 2nd most senior upa's patta and offer it to the 3rd most senior upa...etc, thus shuffling all pattas (srtd-ṭ)‒in the end all upas are considered to be eating what belongs to the sāmaṇera
- if the sāmaṇera does not know what to do
- each upa in order should ask for the sāmaṇera's bowl and give him their own bowl; there are no offenses
- an upa collects and gives food for a sāmaṇera; if the sāmaṇera offers it back and the monk had vitakka sodhana, can he consume it? yes
if he does so with raw meat? yes
is there any offense for accepting raw meat for a sāmaṇera? no
- vitakka sodhana↔the upa recalls not having thought that the sāmaṇera would offer him this food, or that he collected the food genuinely for the sāmaṇera alone, not for himself
- Sakkoti vitakkaṃ sodhetunti mayhampi detīti vitakkassa anuppannabhāvaṃ sallakkhetuṃ sakkoti, sāmaṇerassa dassāmīti suddhacittena mayā gahitanti vā sallakkhetuṃ sakkoti. (Srd ṭ. III. 74.).
- upa carrying appaṭiggahita branch as a shade or to ward off flies
- the branch contains fruits which he then desires to eat: he can get it offered and eat it
if the upa makes it kappiya, gets it offered in case any pieces fall into his bowl, and uses it to ward off flies: entire branch is paṭiggahita; he can consume it (srtd-ṭ)
- upa carrying appaṭiggahita for his parents
- an upa carries unoffered food to his parents; they cook and offer it to the upa: he can consume it
if the upa gets sick on the way, can he consume it? he can get it offered and consume it
- abbhohārika
- smoke need not be offered
- scents need not be offered: such as sniffing an unoffered fruit for motionsickness

if food falls while it is being offered, is it pariccatta? yes
is it paṭiggahita? no, appaṭiggahita
can the recipient take it and consume it? yes
if the food is dusty: the dust should be removed or the food reoffered
can the recipient ask another monk to collect it? yes, for himself
can the recipient give it to another monk saying "eat it"? yes
can another monk collect it for himself and eat it? no, only for the recipient or with his permission
can another monk collect it for the recipient without having been told to do so? yes
- Anujānāmi, bhikkhave, yaṃ diyyamānaṃ patati, taṃ sāmaṃ gahetvā paribhuñjituṃ pariccattaṃ taṃ, bhikkhave, dāyakehi.
- can the recipient cover the fallen food without touching it, and get it reoffered and consume it on the following day? yes
is it sannidhikāraka? no
is there any offense? no
on the following day, can he collect it by himself and consume it? no
can he do so on the same day during kāla? yes

is there sannidhikāraka offense? no, since it was not properly offered (only properly offered edibles become sannidhi if kept overnight)
- why is it called adinnamukhadvāra? the item is adinna, but if one had eaten it on the same day, one would still be consuming an adinna item #q🙋🏼♂
- why is there a sannidhi pc in the first case? #q🙋🏼♂
