Wealth in Brief
“सत्तिमानि, भिक्खवे, धनानि। कतमानि सत्त? सद्धाधनं, सीलधनं, हिरीधनं, ओत्तप्पधनं, सुतधनं, चागधनं, पञ्ञाधनं। इमानि खो, भिक्खवे, सत्त धनानीति।
“Sattimāni, bhikkhave, dhanāni. Katamāni satta? Saddhādhanaṁ, sīladhanaṁ, hirīdhanaṁ, ottappadhanaṁ, sutadhanaṁ, cāgadhanaṁ, paññādhanaṁ. Imāni kho, bhikkhave, satta dhanānīti.
“Bhikkhus, there are these seven kinds of wealth. What seven? The wealth of faith, ethics, conscience, prudence, learning, generosity, and wisdom. These are the seven kinds of wealth.
सद्धाधनं सीलधनं, हिरी ओत्तप्पियं धनं; सुतधनञ्च चागो च, पञ्ञा वे सत्तमं धनं।
Saddhādhanaṁ sīladhanaṁ, hirī ottappiyaṁ dhanaṁ; Sutadhanañca cāgo ca, paññā ve sattamaṁ dhanaṁ.
Faith and ethical conduct are kinds of wealth, as are conscience and prudence, learning and generosity, and wisdom is the seventh kind of wealth.
यस्स एते धना अत्थि, इत्थिया पुरिसस्स वा; अदलिद्दोति तं आहु, अमोघं तस्स जीवितं।
Yassa ete dhanā atthi, itthiyā purisassa vā; Adaliddoti taṁ āhu, amoghaṁ tassa jīvitaṁ.
When a woman or man has these kinds of wealth, they’re said to be prosperous, their life is not in vain.
तस्मा सद्धञ्च सीलञ्च, पसादं धम्मदस्सनं; अनुयुञ्जेथ मेधावी, सरं बुद्धान सासनन्”ति।
Tasmā saddhañca sīlañca, Pasādaṁ dhammadassanaṁ; Anuyuñjetha medhāvī, Saraṁ1 buddhāna sāsanan”ti.
So let the wise devote themselves to faith, ethical behavior, confidence, and insight into the teaching, remembering the instructions of the Buddhas.”
