“Bhikkhū, when a Wheel-Turning Monarch appears seven treasures appear.

“Rañño, bhikkhave, cakkavattissa pātubhāvā sattannaṁ ratanānaṁ pātubhāvo hoti.

What seven?

Katamesaṁ sattannaṁ?

The wheel, the elephant, the horse, the jewel, the woman, the treasurer, and the counselor.

Cakkaratanassa pātubhāvo hoti, hatthiratanassa pātubhāvo hoti, assaratanassa pātubhāvo hoti, maṇiratanassa pātubhāvo hoti, itthiratanassa pātubhāvo hoti, gahapatiratanassa pātubhāvo hoti, pariṇāyakaratanassa pātubhāvo hoti.

When a Wheel-Turning Monarch appears these seven treasures appear.

Rañño, bhikkhave, cakkavattissa pātubhāvā imesaṁ sattannaṁ ratanānaṁ pātubhāvo hoti.

When a Realized One, a perfected one, a fully awakened Buddha appears the seven treasures of the awakening factors appear.

Tathāgatassa, bhikkhave, pātubhāvā arahato sammāsambuddhassa sattannaṁ bojjhaṅgaratanānaṁ pātubhāvo hoti.

What seven?

Katamesaṁ sattannaṁ?

The treasures of the awakening factors of mindfulness, investigation of principles, energy, rapture, tranquility, samādhi, and equanimity.

Satisambojjhaṅgassa ratanassa pātubhāvo hoti …pe… upekkhāsambojjhaṅgassa ratanassa pātubhāvo hoti.

When a Realized One, a perfected one, a fully awakened Buddha appears these seven treasures of the awakening factors appear.”

Tathāgatassa, bhikkhave, pātubhāvā arahato sammāsambuddhassa imesaṁ sattannaṁ bojjhaṅgaratanānaṁ pātubhāvo hotī”ti.
