5. On Fire
Food
“Both gods and humans
enjoy their food.
So what’s the name of the spirit
who doesn’t enjoy food?”
“Those who give with faith
and a clear and confident heart,
partake of food
in this world and the next.
So you should dispel stinginess,
overcoming that stain, and give a gift.
The good deeds of sentient beings
support them in the next world.”
