Walt 1977 A carriage-maker in the city,
I was skilled in working with wood.
Having made a sandalwood plank
I gave it to the World’s Kinsman. Verse 1Walt 1978 Made of gold, this divine mansion
lights up all of the directions.
Elephant, divine and equine
carriages are provided me. Verse 2Walt 1979 Palaces and palanquins too
are produced according to wish;
unsifted, gemstones come to me:
that is the fruit of a plank-gift. Verse 3Walt 1980 In the ninety-one aeons since
I gave him that plank-gift back then,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that is the fruit of a plank-gift. Verse 4Walt 1981 In the fifty-seventh aeon,
four men named Bhavanimmita
were wheel-turning kings with great strength,
possessors of the seven gems. Verse 5Walt 1982 The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught! Verse 6
Thus indeed Venerable Phalakadāyaka Thera spoke these verses.
The legend of Phalakadāyaka Thera is finished.
