In India, there was a man named Sudatta who experienced poverty seven times and also experienced becoming millionaire seven times. When he was stricken with poverty for the seventh time, his family members as well as household servants all fled or died, leaving only Sudatta and his wife. The couple then had five shō of rice, which they planned to use for food for five days. Just at that moment five priests — Mahākāśyapa, Śāriputra, Ānanda, Rāhula, and Śākyamuni Buddha visited them one by one begging for food. Sudatta offered all the five shō of rice to them. From that day on Sudatta became the wealthiest person in all of India. In the end he was able to build the Jeta Grove Monastery for the Buddha.
