Furthermore, the Sūtra of Parables states: 'It is said that Prince Jeta formerly, in the time of Vipaśyin Buddha, gave one male servant and one female servant to sweep a monastery. Due to this merit, life after life he constantly obtained palaces and dwellings of the seven treasures. On both sides of the gates and doors, there were always spontaneous gold and silver men and women holding precious bowls filled with the seven treasures, which could be taken without exhaustion. At night, there were always spontaneous heavenly troops of over five hundred horsemen guarding his dwelling, and none dared approach it. As for the seven treasures of a wheel-turning king, they are: first, the treasure of the golden wheel; second, the treasure of the white elephant; third, the treasure of the dark-blue horse; fourth, the treasure of the divine jewel; fifth, the treasure of the jade maiden; sixth, the treasure of the steward of the treasury; seventh, the treasure of the marshal of the army.'
