Like a lion with fearless form,
like a great harpy with strong wings,
like a superb bull of tigers,
and like a high-born lion-king,Sikhi, Refuge of the Three Worlds,
the Desireless One, Unconquered,
the Best Among the Monks sat there,
Honored by the monks’ Assembly.Having placed into a casket
a superb anoja flower,
sprinkling it on the Best Buddha
I also gave him that casket.Due to that pleasure in my heart
for the Biped-Lord, Bull of Men,
I’ve attained the unshaking state
beyond all conquest and defeat.In the thirty-one aeons since
I did that good karma back then,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that’s the fruit of Buddha-pūjā.Throughout the thirtieth aeon hence
there were five wheel-turning monarchs.
They all were named Devabhūti,
possessors 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 Pupphacaṅgoṭiya Thera spoke these verses.
The legend of Pupphacaṅgoṭiya Thera is finished.
The Summary:
Sakacitta, Addhāpupphī,
and with Paccābhigamana,
Parappasādī, Bhisada,
Sucintī, Vatthadāyaka,
Ambadāyī and Sumana
and also Puppacaṅgoṭika
seventy-one verses counted,
were uttered by these goal-seers.
