The Sambuddha named Sumana
was born, the Leader of the World.
Happy, with pleasure in my heart,
I offered ruk-attana blooms.In the hundred thousand aeons
since I offered ruk-attana,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
fruit of ruk-attana-pūjā.Being in Best Buddha’s presence
was a very good thing for me.
The three knowledges are attained;
I have done what the Buddha taught!My defilements are now burnt up;
all new existence is destroyed.
Like elephants with broken chains,
I am living without constraint.The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught!
Thus indeed Venerable Sattapaṇṇiya Thera spoke these verses.
The legend of Sattapaṇṇiya Thera is finished.
