Vintage wood sculpture of Buddha God (bhikkhu) going around with an alms bowl, a rattan fan and walking stick for food offered by pedestrians (dana).
The Lord Buddha gave this reflection about finding and eating food:
"Properly considering alms food, I use it: not playfully, nor for intoxication, nor for putting on weight, nor for beautification; but simply for the survival and continuance of this body, for ending its afflictions, for the support of the chaste life, I will destroy old feelings of hunger and not create new feelings from overeating. Thus I will maintain myself, be blameless, and live in comfort"
