The rewards derived from listening to the Dhamma. On one occasion, the Buddha was present at the Jetavana monastery in Savatthi gave a sermon to his disciples and talked about a previous story. A man entered the temple and listened intently to the sermon. While listening, his mind was filled with joy. After listening to the sermon, the man went back to his house. He remembered the Buddha, the Dhamma and the Sangha. At the end of his life, with the merit of listening to the Dhamma and remembering the virtues of the Triple Gem, that man was born in the heaven of Tusita. Colophon: Folio 9 on the recto side: Sangkatrasa (CS) 1247, a hap hao year, on the third day of the waxing moon of the seventh lunar month, the first day of the week (Sunday), the writing was accomplished at the time of thae. Nai Thao (Mr) Suvan had the religious faith to sponsor the making of this manuscript entitled Pitaka Thammathesana (Pitaka Dhammadesana) to support the Teachings of the Buddha to last until the end of 5000 years. May all my wishes and desires come true. May the results of this merit support my parent who already died to the other world.
