1. Sārandada Sutta.—Once, five hundred Licchavis met at the Sārandada-cetiya and their discussion turned on the five treasures in the world: elephant, horse, jewel, woman, householder. Unable to decide on these matters, they stationed a man at the road to watch for the approach of the Buddha, who was then living in the Mahāvana in Vesāli. On being invited to the Sārandada-cetiya, the Buddha went to them, and, having heard of their discussion, told them of five treasures much more rare in the world: the Tathāgata, his Dhamma, a person able to recognize the Dhamma in the world, one who follows it, and one who is grateful.¹
