Walt 1966 I made the Bodhi-railing of
the Great Sage, Anomadassi.
After giving balls of plaster,
I did all of the work by hand. Verse 1Walt 1967 Anomadassi, the Best Man,
the Teacher, seated with the monks,
having seen that work so well done,
then uttered this verse about me: Verse 2Walt 1968 “Because of this plastering work,
and his intention and resolve,
after enjoying happiness,
he’ll make an end to suffering.” Verse 3Walt 1969 My complexion shows my pleasure;
I’m tranquil and well-self-controlled.
I am bearing my last body
in the Buddha’s dispensation. Verse 4Walt 1970 When the hundredth aeon ago
and no less had been completed,
I was named King Sabbagghana,
a wheel-turner with great power. Verse 5Walt 1971 The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught! Verse 6
Thus indeed Venerable Anulepadāyaka Thera spoke these verses.
The legend of Anulepadāyaka Thera is finished.
