"There are these four wheels, endowed with which human beings & devas(angels) develop a four-wheeled prosperity; endowed with which human beings & devas(angels) in no long time achieve greatness & abundance in terms of wealth. Which four? Living in a civilized land, associating with people of integrity, directing oneself rightly, and having done merit in the past. These are the four wheels, endowed with which human beings & devas(angels) develop a four-wheeled prosperity; endowed with which human beings & devas(angels) in no long time achieve greatness & abundance in terms of wealth.
