Pindashuddhi Adhikār 6.169 discusses the various purposes of food offerings. There are four classifications based on intent:
1. The purpose of almsgiving (uddese) is to provide food to anyone who arrives, which is called the general purpose (samuddesa).
2. Food prepared for the sake of a hypocritical (pāṣaṇḍi) person of another faith is also considered a general purpose.
3. Food made for ascetics (tāpasa) or wandering monks (parivrājaka) is classified as a specific purpose (ādeśa).
4. Food prepared for Digambara (a sect of Jain monks) ascetics is considered serious and faulted as a collective purpose (samādheśa).
These are the four distinctions regarding purposes.
The next part describes the nature of an additional fault (adhyadhidōṣa): If a restrained monk lets the rice and water boil too long on the stove, delaying its offering to someone who has arrived, or if he prevents the monk from receiving food under the pretext of discussing dharma until the meal is prepared, this is considered an additional fault.
The text ends with a reference to the preparation process, emphasizing the importance of intention and the nature of food offerings among different groups within Jainism.
