On one occasion, while residing at the Jetavana monastery, the Buddha spoke to monks about Pancaggadayaka Brahmin who was in the habit of making five offerings of the first-fruits in charity. One day, the Buddha saw the Brahmin and his wife in his vision and knew that the couple would attain the high level in the Dhamma. So, the Buddha went to give a sermon to the couple. At the end of the discourse both the Brahmin and his wife attained Anagami Fruition. Colophon: Folio 26 on the recto side: Sangkat thousand hundred 96 (corresponding with CS 1196), a kap sanga year, the third day of the waxing moon of the third lunar month, the seventh day of the week (Saturday), the writing was accomplished at the time of thiang vang (between 10.30-12.00 o’clock). Sathu Maha Phutthavongsa Viriyapannya from Vat Phonsaiyaramathipadi had the ardent religious faith to sponsor the making of this manuscript [entitled] Thammabot, to support the Teachings of the Buddha. May my wishes come true. May this be a condition to reach Nibbāna.
