4.3.2.3. Contentment
And how is a mendicant content?
It’s when a mendicant is content with robes to look after the body and alms-food to look after the belly.
Wherever they go, they set out taking only these things.
They’re like a bird: wherever it flies, wings are its only burden.
In the same way, a mendicant is content with robes to look after the body and alms-food to look after the belly.
Wherever they go, they set out taking only these things.
That’s how a mendicant is content.
