The Discourse about the Great Emancipation

The Fourth Chapter for Recitation
the Gracious One with a talk about the Teaching, said this to the
Gracious One: “May the Gracious One consent, reverend Sir, to me
(offering him) a meal on the morrow, together with the Community of
monks.”
The Gracious One consented by maintaining silence. Then Cunda the
Smith, having understood the Gracious One's consent, after rising from
his seat, worshipping and circumambulating the Gracious One, went
away.
Then after the night had passed, Cunda the Smith, in his own
residence, having had excellent foodstuffs made ready, and an
abundance of tender pork, 128 had the time announced to the Gracious
One, (saying): “It is time, reverend Sir, the meal is ready.”
Then the Gracious One, having dressed in the morning time, after
picking up his bowl and robe, together with the Community of monks,
approached Cunda the Smith's residence, and after approaching, he sat
down on the prepared seat. Having sat down, the Gracious One
addressed Cunda the Smith, (saying):
128 Sūkaramaddavan-ti nātitaruṇassa nātijiṇṇassa ekajeṭṭhakasūkarassa
pavattamaṁsaṁ; tender pork means fresh meat from a great pig that is not
too young nor too old. Elsewhere in the Commentaries there are some
further suggestions: that it was made of soft rice cooked with the five
products of a cow; an elixer of life (rasāyanavidhi); bamboo shoots
trampled by pigs; or mushrooms.
