[300] "Then to whom, Master Gotama, shall I give this milk-rice (pāyāsa)?"
"Brahmin, I do not see anyone in this world with its devas, its Māra, and its Brahmā, in this generation with its ascetics and brahmins, with its devas and humans, by whom that milk-rice, when eaten, could be properly digested, except the Tathāgata or a disciple of the Tathāgata. Therefore, brahmin, discard that milk-rice where there is little vegetation, or sink it in water that is free of living creatures."
Then the brahmin Kasibhāradvāja sank that milk-rice in water free of living creatures. And that milk-rice, thrown into the water, sizzled and hissed, smoked and steamed. Just as an iron ball heated all day, when thrown into water, sizzles and hisses, smokes and steams, even so that milk-rice, thrown into the water, sizzled and hissed, smoked and steamed.
