## Tenth Study
## The Story of Salhihipita, the Wealthy Patron
**273.** The tenth study begins with an introduction. Thus, Jambū! In that time, in that era, in the city of Sāvatthī, there was a shrine called Koṭṭha. Jitasattu was the king there.
In the city of Sāvatthī, a wealthy and radiant patron named Salhihipita resided. He had four crore gold coins in his treasury as secure wealth, four crore gold coins invested in trade, and four crore gold coins used for the splendor and resources of his household. He had four cow-herds, each with ten thousand cows. His wife's name was Phālguni.
**274.** The same is true for the householder. Just as there is joy, so too is there a decline in worldly dharma. Just as Kāmadeva, so too, the son of Jetu, having attained the Dharma-Pannatti of the Blessed Lord Mahāvīra, dwells in the abode of the monk. The eleven Nirūvasaggā Upāsaka-Paḍimā are also to be spoken of, and they are to be led by the path of Kāmadeva, until they reach the Arunakīla Vimāna in the Sohamme Kalpa, where they are to be honored by the Devatta. There are four parables. The Mahavideha dwells in the Sijjhi.
1. If, Bhante! the Blessed One, the monk, has explained the ninth study of the Upāsaka-Daśā with all its wealth, then, Bhante! what is the meaning of the tenth study?
2. Ārya Sudharma asked Jambū - If the Siddha Mahāvīra has explained the ninth study of the Upāsaka-Daśā, then, Bhante! what is the meaning of the tenth study? (Please tell me)
