khalu-pacchā-bhattikaṅga-dhutaṅga

{hka.lu.pis-hsa-Bat.ti.kin~ga. Du.tin~ga.}
Ref: khalu

n. ascetic practice followed by a monk whereby additional food offertories are refused although it would not have contravened ordinances had he accepted.
This is done by taking a vow saying: "I reject taking of additional helpings adopting the manner of one expert in the monastic code of conduct and undertake to observe the practice of a bird who does not carry a reserve of food with him." See dhutiṅga .-- UMK-USL p30

pacchā -- (adv.) behind, aft, after, afterwards, back; westward. -- PTS p386
pacchā bhattika -- one who eats afterwards, i.e. afternoon when it is improper to eat  -- PTS p386

bhatta -- feeding, food, nourishment, meal -- PTS p497

bhattika -- [fr. bhatta] in dhuva-bhattika, being in constant supply of food, being a regular attendant (servant) or advisor -- PTS p497

dhuta -- 1. shaken, moved. 2. lit. "shaken off", but always explained in the commentaries as "one shakes off" either evil dispositions (kilesa ) or obstacles to spiritual progress (vāra , nīvaraṇa) -- PTS p342.

dhuta-anga -- a set of practices leading to the state of or appropriate to a dhuta , that is to a scrupulous person. First occurs in a title suffixed to a passage in the Parivāra deprecating such practices. The passage occurs twice (Vin v.131, 193), but the title, probably later than the text, is added only to the second or the two. The passage gives a list of 13 such practices, each of them an ascetic practice not enjoined in the Vinaya.  -- PTS p342
UKT -- Example of liaison in Pali:
dhuta + anga —> dhutiṅga. See Myanmar and Pali in Introduction.

anga -- 1. a constituent part of the body, a limb, member. 2. (fig.) a constituent part of a whole or system or collection -- PTS p6.
