v1.c9.65

2. **Ugga.**—The chief minister of Pasenadi, king of Kosala.¹ He once visited the Buddha and told him how he rivalled in power and wealth the seṭṭhi Migāra, grandson of Rohaṇa. He was worth one hundred thousand in gold alone, to say nothing of silver. The Buddha tells him that all this wealth could easily be lost in various ways, not so the seven kinds of Āriyan wealth (*saddhā*, *sīla*, etc.).²
