snp3.4:1.1 So I have heard.
snp3.4:1.2 At one time the Buddha was staying in the Kosalan lands on the bank of the Sundarikā River.
snp3.4:1.3 Now at that time the brahmin Bhāradvāja of Sundarikā was serving the sacred flame and performing the fire sacrifice on the bank of the Sundarikā.
snp3.4:1.4 Then he rose from his seat and surveyed the four quarters, wondering,
snp3.4:1.5 “Now who might eat the leftovers of this oblation?”
snp3.4:1.6 He saw the Buddha meditating at the root of a certain tree with his robe pulled over his head.
snp3.4:1.7 Taking the leftovers of the oblation in his left hand and a pitcher in the right he approached the Buddha.
