I gifted a fine elephant,
with tusks like plough-poles, fully grown,
to Siddhattha, the Blessed One,
Lord of Bipeds, the Neutral One.I grasp the ultimate meaning,
the unsurpassed pathway to peace.
I gave a very costly gift
to the Well-Wisher of All Worlds.In the ninety-four aeons since
I gave him that gift at that time,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
the fruit of giving elephants.In the seventy-eighth aeon
there were sixteen of royal caste,
named Samantapāsādika,
wheel-turning monarchs with great strength.The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught!
Thus indeed Venerable Hatthidāyaka Thera spoke these verses.
The legend of Hatthidāyaka Thera is finished.
