Annasutta
“Annamevābhinandanti, ubhaye devamānusā; Atha ko nāma so yakkho, yaṁ annaṁ nābhinandatī”ti.
Food
“Both gods and humans enjoy their food. So what’s the name of the spirit who doesn’t enjoy food?”
“Ye naṁ dadanti saddhāya, vippasannena cetasā; Tameva annaṁ bhajati, asmiṁ loke paramhi ca.
“Those who give with faith and a clear and confident heart, partake of food in this world and the next.
Tasmā vineyya maccheraṁ, dajjā dānaṁ malābhibhū; Puññāni paralokasmiṁ, patiṭṭhā honti pāṇinan”ti.
So you should dispel stinginess, overcoming that stain, and give a gift. The good deeds of sentient beings support them in the next world.”
