Overview

Uda acts while someone eats or attends to bodily needs in a private place. The Bundahishn describes him striking the person’s back spiritually with his knee, causing a cry and chatter.

The religious consequence is failure to attain the desired best existence. This specific action belongs to a passage concerned with disciplined bodily behaviour; it is not a general claim that every sound at a meal results from a demon.
