All the people, come together,
went into the forest back then.
Searching for fruit growing wild there,
they obtained such fruit at that time.I saw him there, the Sambuddha,
the Self-Become, Unconquered One.
Happy, with pleasure in my heart,
I gave some valli fruit to him.In the thirty-one aeons since
I gave Buddha that fruit back then,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that is the fruit of giving fruit.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 Valliphaladāyaka Thera spoke these verses.
The legend of Valliphaladāyaka Thera is finished.
