On one occasion, the Buddha was residing at the Jetavana monastery in Savatthi. At the time, a king named Mahanama approasched the presence of the Buddha and asked whoever haave faith and build many kinds of offerings, what benefits will those one receive? The Buddha gave a sermon relating the rewards derived from giving the various kinds of gifts the king. The Buddha started with offering a Buddha statue will gain the rewards for nine kappa (eon) until ended the listening to the preaching of Vessantara Jataka finished in a day will gain much merit and will reborn in the time of Metteyya Buddha. The rewards that are currently achieved are to be respected and loved by onthers. After death, the person will reborn in Tavatimsa heaven. After the heaven, the person will reborn in rich families like royal family. Colophon: Folio 8 on the recto side: Buddhist Era (BE) 2512, on the seventh day of the waxing moon of the eleventh lunar month, the seventh day of the week (Saturday), the writing was accomplished at the time of thae kai thiang (between 9.00–10.30 o’clock). Sathu Phò Chan, abbot of Vat Long Khun temple had the ardent religious faith to sponsor the making of this manuscript entitled Sòng Sappha Thān (Rewards derived from the donation of all kinds of gift-giving) to support the Teachings of the Buddha to last until the end of 5000 years. May the results of this merit support my Nai Peng who already died to the other world. Even if he has been stuck in a misery place, may the results of this merit to move him to a good place. Even if he is already in a good place, may he get better than ever as my wishes. May this be a condition to reach Nirvana.
