Walt 1849 I resided on a mountain
in the Himalayan Mountains.
Having seen some pure white sand I
recollected the Best Buddha: Verse 1Walt 1850 “Knowledge has no analogy;
neither does meeting the Teacher.
After learning all the Teaching
one is set free by that knowledge. Verse 2Walt 1851 Praise to you, O Well-Bred Person!
Praise to you, Ultimate Person!
There’s no one who’s the same as you
in terms of knowledge, Best of Men.” Verse 3Walt 1852 Having pleased my heart in knowledge,
I thrilled an aeon in heaven.
During the aeons that remained,
I completed that good karma.Verse 4Walt 1853 In the ninety-one aeons since
I obtained that perception then,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
the fruit of knowledge-perception. Verse 5Walt 1854 In the seventy-third aeon
one named Puḷinapupphiya
was a wheel-turner with great strength,
possessor of the seven gems. Verse 6Walt 1855 The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught! Verse 7
Thus indeed Venerable Ñāṇasaññaka Thera spoke these verses.
The legend of Ñāṇasaññaka Thera is finished.
