Meaning : The Munis always accept food water etc. only after carefully scrutinising that it is free from forty two types of faults, this is called Eshana Samiti.
Explanation : The munis should receive food which is not specially made for them but had already been prepared by the householder for himself.' They should accept only a small quantity so as not to disturb the householder or compel him to cook again. They should take only as much as is necessary for sustenance. The forty two faults which are to be avoided by the munis whilst accepting food, water etc. are described in Pindniryukti Sutra, Dashvaikalik sutra, Uttaradhyayan Sutra etc.
