The text tells in the Buddha’s time, there was a monk practising meditation in the forest near the Jetavana monastery. At the time, there was a devout lay man lived in near the forest. When he saw the monk in serious practicing he was faithful in him. The man offered the monk with eight requisites. While offering, the man said, “I offered these eight requisites to the Sangha”. Hearing this, the monk had doubts, and thought that I am alone but this man said he offered to the Sangha”. At the night, an angel appeared and asked three questions to the monks. The angel said, “if you cannot answer, you should ask the Buddha, if you do not answer you will be ruined. In the coming morning the monk went to the presence of the Buddha at the Jetavana monastery. He told the Buddha the two events and asked the Buddha to explain him his doubts and the answers to the angel’s questions.
