In the Himalayan region,
there’s a mountain named Udaka.
There I saw the Buddha’s rag-robe,
stuck up in the top of a tree.Plucking three kiṅkhani flowers,
that were growing there at that time,
happy, and with a happy heart,
I offered them to that rag-robe.Due to that karma done very well,
with intention and firm resolve,
discarding my human body,
I went to Tāvatiṁsa then.In the ninety-one aeons since
I did pūjā to that Buddha,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that’s the fruit of Buddha-pūjā.My defilements are now burnt up;
all new existence is destroyed.
Like elephants with broken chains,
I am living without constraint.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!The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught!
Thus indeed Venerable Paṁsukūlapūjaka Thera spoke these verses.
The legend of Paṁsukūlapūjaka Thera is finished.
