I heard Chapter 47 has a story about greed. What does the introduction to the chapter say about this story and how does it connect to the previous one?

πŸ“– Chapter 47

The introduction in Chapter 47 does indeed set the stage for a story about greed. It asks listeners to pay attention to a story demonstrating "how the extreme state of greed for wealth leads to a downfall." However, these initial verses only introduce the theme and do not narrate the story itself. As Chapter 47 explains, this upcoming story is presented as a point of contrast and continuation from the previous chapter's narrative. The text explicitly asks listeners to follow the connection, mentioning that they had just heard the story of the goats in the previous chapter, which showcased Baba's love stemming from memories of past lives. Now, they are prompted to listen to a story with a different moral.
