Earthen jugs, jars, and wide-mouthed pots—well prepared and neatly set—were filled with fragrant curd: fresh, pale, and of the hue of the kapittha (wood-apple) fruit.
There were thousands of pots, lakhs of plates, crores of vessels -- all made of gold and filled with wellgarnished food. Curd was kept in earthern pots like jugs and jars and pots with a wide mouth. Tanks were formed, some filled with white curd of good flavour and of the colour of woodapple, some with white curd blended with spices and some with payasam and heaps of barely powder mixed with sugar.
Care for dependents and guests (atithi-sevā, jana-saṃrakṣaṇa): provision is not merely abundant but also wholesome, clean, and properly prepared.
The text details food stores placed for a travelling multitude—specifically curd stored in various earthen containers.
Attention to purity and suitability (śauca and yogyatā) in public provisioning.
