376. {379.} Sumanadāmadāyaka

Walt 3267 Having made a wreath of jasmine,
I stood carrying it in front
of Siddhattha, the Blessed One,
the Well-Bathed One, the Ascetic. Verse 1

Walt 3268 In the ninety-four aeons since
I carried that wreath of jasmine,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
the fruit in carrying jasmine. Verse 2

Walt 3269 My being in Buddha’s presence
was a very good thing for me.
The three knowledges are attained;
I have done what the Buddha taught! Verse 3

Walt 3270 My defilements are now burnt up;
all new existence is destroyed.
Like elephants with broken chains,
I am living without constraint. Verse 4

Walt 3271 The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught! Verse 5

Thus indeed Venerable Sumanadāmadāyaka Thera spoke these verses.

The legend of Sumanadāmadāyaka Thera is finished.
