Chatila Setthi,
a legendary millionaire
in Buddhist lore, was born under miraculous circumstances and raised by
a wealthy merchant. He demonstrated extraordinary merit by turning
unsellable goods into fortune and receiving a miraculous ‘golden
mountain’, which appeared as a testament to his past virtuous deeds.
Although immensely wealthy, Chatila remained spiritually aware, using
his resources for good and eventually renouncing his riches to seek
Enlightenment.
