On one occasion, the Buddha was residing in Kapilavatthu, the Buddha delivered a sermon to his disciples and the people from eighty thousand families. The Buddha related to the two things that are dāna–alms-giving and sīla–morality. The results from alms-giving and observing precepts are different. Those who wish to gain lokiya sampatti (worldly success) such as kingship, millionaires, wealthy people, Indra, Brahma, or emperors. Their wishes are regarded as carelessness in life because of following with the ones graving. Those who wish to gain lokuttara sampatti (supramundane success) that is Nirvana, their whishe is sublime and ultimate. Colophon: Folio 34 on the recto side: Sangkat (CS) 1250, a poek chai year, on the fifth day of the waxing moon of the fourth lunar month, the fourth day of the week (Thursday), a huang sai day, the writing was accomplished at the time of thae kai thiang (between 9.00–10.30 o’clock). Mae Phaengsi (Mother of Ms Phaengsi) and her husband together with all their children, grandchildren, relatives and siblings jointly had the ardent religious faith in the Teachings of the Buddha to sponsor the making of this manuscript entitled Munlaniphan (Mullanibbāna) to support the Teachings of the Buddha to last until the end of 5000 years. May our desires and wishes come true. May this be a condition for us to reach Nirvana, certainly, the greatest bliss. Chao Khanan Phothipannya is the scribe. My handwriting is not beautiful as my hand was rough because I never have written before. Please anyone does not blame me.
