What are his great treasures & great resources?\"\n\"One hundred thousand pieces of gold, lord, to say nothing of his silver.\"\n\"That is treasure, Ugga. I don't say that it's not. And that treasure is open to fire, floods, kings, thieves, & hateful heirs. But these seven treasures are not open to fire, flood, kings, thieves, or hateful heirs. Which seven? The treasure of conviction, the treasure of virtue, the treasure of conscience, the treasure of concern, the treasure of listening, the treasure of generosity, the treasure of discernment. These, Ugga, are the seven treasures that are not open to fire, flood, kings, thieves, or hateful heirs.\nThe treasure of conviction,\nthe treasure of virtue,\nthe treasure of conscience & concern.\nThe treasure of listening, generosity,\n& discernment as the seventh treasure.\nWhoever, man or woman, has these treasures,\nhas great treasure in the world\nthat no human or divine being can excel.\nSo conviction & virtue, faith & Dhamma-vision\nshould be cultivated by the wise,\nremembering the Buddhas' instruction.","title":"AN VII.7: Ugga Sutta","type":"page"}
