[744] **And he should not tremble when not obtaining them**: a bhikkhu should not tremble, should not be alarmed, should not be terrified, should not be afraid, should not fall into terror, thinking, "I do not obtain food, or I do not obtain drink, or I do not obtain cloth, or I do not obtain a family, or I do not obtain a group, or I do not obtain a dwelling, or I do not obtain gain, or I do not obtain fame, or I do not obtain praise, or I do not obtain pleasure, or I do not obtain robes, or I do not obtain almsfood, or I do not obtain lodging, or I do not obtain medicinal requisites for the sick, or I do not obtain an attendant for the sick, or I am not well known." He should be fearless, unalarmed, unterrified, not one who flees; he should dwell with fear and dread abandoned, with horripilation gone. Hence, **and he should not tremble when not obtaining them**. Therefore the Blessed One said:
Having obtained food, and drink,
edibles, and also cloth,
he should not make a hoard (sannidhi),
and he should not tremble when not obtaining them.
