_The Jaataka_ (Cowell, ed.) gives a citation in regards to the compound at vol. 1, p. 17:
"When a gift was made,the donor poured water over the hand of the donee. The gift that was here made by Jiivaka was the food bestowed on the Brotherhood, as the Milindapanho explains (p. 118) in its version of this story."
I can find no such story in the Miln... perhaps it would shed some light on this?
