In the city, Bandhumatī,
there was a large multitude then.
I was most excellent of them,
and they were all my companions.Having called them all together
I then promoted good karma,
“let’s build the unsurpassed merit-field,
the monks’ Assembly, a building.”Those followers of my wishes
agreed by saying, “Excellent!”
and when they finished the building,
we gave it to Vipassi then.In the ninety-one aeons since
I gave him that building back then,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that’s the fruit of giving buildings.In the fifty-ninth aeon hence
there was one lord of the people,
a wheel-turning king with great strength,
known by the name of Āveyya.The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught!
Thus indeed Venerable Samādapaka Thera spoke these verses.
The legend of Samādapaka Thera is finished.
