Walt 5353 I was formerly a hunter,
wandering in the woods back then.
I saw the Buddha, Stainless One,
who was Master of Everything. Verse 1Walt 5354 Carrying a piyāla fruit,
I gave it to the Best Buddha,
the Field of Merit, the Hero,
feeling well-pleased by my own hands. Verse 2Walt 5355 In the thirty-one aeons since
I gave him that fruit at that time,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that is the fruit of giving fruit. Verse 3Walt 5356 My defilements are now burnt up;
all new existence is destroyed.
Like elephants with broken chains,
I am living without constraint. Verse 4Walt 5357 Being in Best Buddha’s presence
was a very good thing for me.
The three knowledges are attained;
I have done what the Buddha taught! Verse 5Walt 5358 The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught! Verse 6
