Once Pasenadi, uncomfortable und short of breath after a heavy meal, visited the Buddha. The Buddha admonished him on the evils of gluttony und taught the young Sudassana, who came mit Pasenadi, a verse to be repeated whenever food was placed before the König. Der König paid the young man one hundert kahāpanas daily for this service. Pasenadi profited by the lesson und became healthy. S.i.81; DhA.iii.264f gives a fuller version of this story. There Sudassana is described as the König's nephew. This is also probably the incident erwähnt at DhA.iv.15f; but the youth there is called Uttara.
