[1717] [Paravādin:] Does the Saṅgha purify an offering (dakkhiṇā)? [Sakavādin:] Yes. [Paravādin:] Does the path (magga) purify it? Does fruition (phala) purify it? [Sakavādin:] It should not be said thus. … Discussion: "It Should Not Be Said That the Saṅgha Purifies an Offering" (Na vattabbaṃ saṅgho dakkhiṇaṃ visodhetīti kathā). __________________ Discussion: "It Should Not Be Said That the Saṅgha Eats" (Na vattabbaṃ saṅgho bhuñjatīti kathā)
