## Pindaniyukti: An Observation
The term "transition" has been used in place of "manifestation" in the Mulachara. The meaning is the same as that of "manifestation". In "illumination", the commentator has given the meaning as polishing vessels with ashes etc. and spreading the vessels out.
The author, while explaining the exceptions to both these faults, says that if a householder brings out food in the light and says that there are many flies inside the house and it is also very hot, there is light outside and no flies, therefore we have brought food out for ourselves or cooked it outside. In this way, by making it self-intended, that food becomes blameless and is therefore acceptable to the monk. However, if the light of a lamp or a torch is used for self-intended purposes, i.e., for the householder's own use, then that food is not acceptable to the monk. If, for some reason, food contaminated with the fault of contamination is consumed, the monk can consume pure food in that vessel without washing it. According to Acharya Vasunandi, food contaminated with the fault of contamination is prohibited due to the lack of purity of the path of eating.
**8. Kritakrit Fault**
For a monk, buying and giving alms is a Kritadosa. Acharya Haribhadra, while clarifying this, has said that whatever is bought for a monk is Krit, and what is made from the purchased item is called Kritakrit. Wherever the mention of "purpose" is found in the Agamas like Acharachula, Sutrakritanga, Stananga, Bhagavati, Dasha Vaikalik etc., there is also a mention of Kritakrit and Abhihit etc. faults.
According to the Brihatkalpa Bhashya, the Kritakrit fault is of two types - specified and unspecified. Where the householder buys with the instruction that such and such clothes, vessels etc. will be for me and such and such for the monk, there is specified Krit. Conversely, what is bought spontaneously is called unspecified Krit. In unspecified Krit, the remaining clothes etc. are acceptable to the monk after being used by the householder, but specified Krit is unacceptable to the monk. In specified Krit, if the householder tells the monk that you accept the clothes bought for me, I will use the clothes bought for you, then the monk can take the specified clothes for that householder. In Pindaniyukti, four types of Kritakrit fault have been explained.
