I gave a garland of flowers
to Vipassi Buddha, Great Sage,
and I gave to the Upright One
a piece of the finest silk cloth.In the ninety-one aeons since
I formerly gave him that cloth,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that’s the fruit of giving perfumes.In the fifteenth aeon ago
lived a ruler named Sucela,
a wheel-turning king with great strength,
possessor of the seven gems.The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught!
Thus indeed Venerable Sabbagandhiya Thera spoke these verses.
The legend of Sabbagandhiya Thera is finished.
