English version How does a Holy King obtain the Treasure of the Chief Treasurer? The answer is: A Cakravartin (Wheel-Turning King, an ideal ruler who governs the world), in his past lives, cultivated causes and performed vast deeds of merit. For example, when there was extreme cold or heat, this future Cakravartin did not cause harm to his parents, teachers, relatives, and other Śrāmaṇas (ascetics) and Brāhmaṇas (priestly class); instead, he cherished them, did not disturb them, and at all times provided the best medicine, the most delicious food, and everything else they needed, serving and supplying them with utmost care. After these people received the offerings, their bodies were clean, their clothes were complete, and they felt happy day and night. Because of such meritorious causes, the Cakravartin is able to obtain the Treasure of the Chief Treasurer. This Chief Treasurer possesses immense wealth and freedom, has numerous relatives, his storehouses are filled with treasures, his wealth and grains are abundant and inexhaustible. He is born due to the good karma he accumulated in the past and possesses divine eyes, enabling him to see hidden treasures underground, whether these treasures have owners or not, whether they are in water or on land, whether they are near or far. He comes to the Cakravartin, diligently provides all kinds of abundant supplies, and respectfully says to the king: 'Your Majesty, I can offer you all the treasures and other things you need.' In the past, there was a Cakravartin who wanted to test the ability of his Chief Treasurer, so he ordered the treasure ship to sail forward, then summoned the Chief Treasurer and said to him: 'You should now use treasures to satisfy my needs.' At that time, the Chief Treasurer said to the Cakravartin: 'Your Majesty, please come ashore, so that I can offer you what you need. If you do not come ashore, it will be difficult to do this.' So the king had the treasure ship anchored ashore. This Chief Treasurer came before the king, knelt on his right knee, respectfully prepared himself by cleansing, and then with both hands held a supreme and wonderful treasure vase made of four kinds of gold, filled with various treasures, and presented it to the king, saying: 'Your Majesty, please accept these supreme and wonderful treasures that I offer.' Then, he spoke this verse: 'Cool and fine rain descends from the sky, just when the hot summer season is at its peak, I offer numerous treasures to the Cakravartin, and also give alms to other impoverished people, After they receive them, they all feel happy, and the beggars all have joyful hearts. Due to such vast and boundless karmic rewards, one ultimately obtains...' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 最胜大财富, 有大神力具天眼, 当为转轮圣王尊。”
