Walt 5611 The Victor, Padumuttara,
was a Master of Everything.
RIsing up from meditation,
the World-Leader walked back and forth. Verse 1Walt 5612 Having taken a khāri-load,
I was carrying fruit just then.
I saw the Buddha, Stainless One,
the Great Sage, walking back and forth. Verse 2Walt 5613 Happy, with pleasure in my heart,
hands pressed together on my head,
saluting him, the Sambuddha,
I gave him a castor-oil fruit. Verse 3Walt 5614 In the hundred thousand aeons,
since I gave that fruit at that time,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that’s the fruit of castor-oil fruit. Verse 4Walt 5615 My defilements are now burnt up;
all new existence is destroyed.
Like elephants with broken chains,
I am living without constraint. Verse 5Walt 5616 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 6Walt 5617 The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught! Verse 7
Thus indeed Venerable Āmaṇḍaphaladāyaka Thera spoke these verses.
The legend of Āmaṇḍaphaladāyaka Thera is finished.
