**Piṇḍaniyukti: A Supervision Constraint is Resonating**
For many days, we have heard about your generosity, but today we have witnessed this quality of yours firsthand. Your spirit of giving is unparalleled, and so on. Thus, praising the donor before receiving alms is called **pūrvavacana-sanstava**.
In the Digambara tradition, the terms **pūrvasanstuti** and **paścātsanstuti** are used. According to them, telling the donor that you are a generous patron like Yaśodhara, and reminding them that you are a great giver, how can you forget to give now, is a **pūrvasanstuti** fault.
**Paścādvacana-sanstava** is praising the donor after receiving alms, saying that my eyes have been purified by meeting you. Earlier, I had doubts about your qualities, but seeing you, I have realized that your qualities are truly renowned.
**Pūrvāsambandhi-sanstava** is establishing a relationship with a donor as a father, mother, or sister while receiving alms. The monk entering for alms, seeing his age and the age of the housewife, establishes a relationship accordingly, saying that my mother, sister, daughter, or granddaughter was like this. Establishing a relationship before marriage is **pūrvāsambandhi-sanstava**.
**Paścātsambandhi-sanstava** is establishing a relationship with the donor as a father-in-law, mother-in-law, or wife according to age while receiving alms. Seeing a donor, the monk says that my mother-in-law or wife was like you.
In the **Jītakalpabhāṣya**, establishing a relationship or praising a woman is more blameworthy than a man in all four categories. The faults arising from **pūrvāsambandhi-sanstava** and **paścātsambandhi-sanstava** can be presented in the following points:
* If the housewife is of a proud nature, she may think that this monk is a magician and a flatterer. He is insulting us by calling us mother, wife, etc. She may become angry and throw the monk out of the house.
* If the housewife's husband hears this, he may kill the monk immediately.
