Cakkavattisutta  A Wheel-Turning Monarch

“Rañño, bhikkhave, cakkavattissa pātubhāvā sattannaṁ ratanānaṁ pātubhāvo hoti.  “Mendicants, when a Wheel-Turning Monarch appears seven treasures appear.
Katamesaṁ sattannaṁ?  What seven?
Cakkaratanassa pātubhāvo hoti, hatthiratanassa pātubhāvo hoti, assaratanassa pātubhāvo hoti, maṇiratanassa pātubhāvo hoti, itthiratanassa pātubhāvo hoti, gahapatiratanassa pātubhāvo hoti, pariṇāyakaratanassa pātubhāvo hoti.  The wheel, the elephant, the horse, the jewel, the woman, the householder, and the commander.
Rañño, bhikkhave, cakkavattissa pātubhāvā imesaṁ sattannaṁ ratanānaṁ pātubhāvo hoti.  When a Wheel-Turning Monarch appears these seven treasures appear.

Tathāgatassa, bhikkhave, pātubhāvā arahato sammāsambuddhassa sattannaṁ bojjhaṅgaratanānaṁ pātubhāvo hoti.  When a Realized One, a perfected one, a fully awakened Buddha appears the seven treasures of the awakening factors appear.
Katamesaṁ sattannaṁ?  What seven?
Satisambojjhaṅgassa ratanassa pātubhāvo hoti …pe… upekkhāsambojjhaṅgassa ratanassa pātubhāvo hoti.  The treasures of the awakening factors of mindfulness, investigation of principles, energy, rapture, tranquility, immersion, and equanimity.
Tathāgatassa, bhikkhave, pātubhāvā arahato sammāsambuddhassa imesaṁ sattannaṁ bojjhaṅgaratanānaṁ pātubhāvo hotī”ti.  When a Realized One, a perfected one, a fully awakened Buddha appears these seven treasures of the awakening factors appear.”

Dutiyaṁ.
