The Perfection of Giving (5th)

kn / cp
The Conduct Leading to Buddhahood · The Chapter With Akitti

“Then again when I was

high priest for seven kings,

I was venerated by the gods among men

as the brahmin Mahāgovinda.

Then in all seven kingdoms

what I receieved as tribute

I used to give a great gift

unwavering as the ocean.

It was not because I disliked riches or grain,

or because I had a store set aside,

but because omniscience is precious to me,

that is why I gave such fine riches.”
