</color>Sesame oil (taila) is mentioned among the "superior foods"
(praNItabhojana) in the bhikSu-prAtimokSasUtra of the SarvAstivAdins
and its pAli parallel, rule pAtayantikA 40 (= pAcittiya 39). It may be
used as a medicine for sick monks: NiHsargikA pAtayantikA 30 (=
nissaggiya pAcittiya 23).
Best regards,
G.v.Simson
