In this talk, Bhante elaborates on Numerical Discourses, the Book of Fives, sutta nos. 43 and 47. In no. 43, the Buddha explains how to fulfill one's desires for long life, beauty, good health, fame, and a happy rebirth. These depend, not on prayers and pious wishes, but on practicing the ways of conduct that lead to these goals. This takes us into a discussion of karma and its fruits, with reference to Majjhima Nikaya no. 135. In Numerical Discourses, Fives, no. 47, the Buddha explains the meaning of "wealth" from the standpoint of the noble Dhamma.
