On one occasion, the Buddha was dwelling in the Jetavana monastery of Savatthi spoke to his disciples about his perfevtion of amls giving. Once, there was a king named Arindummaraja ruled the kingdom of Sucira. The king had his queen named Suvanagabbha Rajadevi. The king built six pavilions for beggars. When any beggar asked for something, the king provided everything. When Indra heard the news, he thought he wanted to try him, so he changed into an old Brahmin and went to ask the king for the treasure. The king was very happy and gave a part of the treasure to Indra Brahmin.
