Then Bhagavat having in the forenoon put on his undergarment ', and having taken his bowl and cloak, entered the great city of Sravastt to collect alms. Then Bhagavat, after he had gone to the great city of Sravastt to collect alms, performed the act of eating, and having returned from his round in the afternoon’, he put away his bowl and cloak, washed his feet, and sat down on the seat intended for him, crossing his legs, holding his body upright, and turning his reflection upon himself. Then many Bhikshus approached to where Bhagavat was, saluted his feet with their heads, turned three times round him to the right, and sat down on one side.
