Walt 159 In the city, Bandhumatī,
I was a water-jug slave-girl.
After receiving my wages,
I went with a water-fetcher. Verse 1Walt 160 Having seen a monk on the road,
attentive with a well-calmed heart,
happy, with pleasure in my heart,
I gave the monk three sweetmeats then. Verse 2Walt 161 Due to that karma done very well,
with intention and firm resolve,
for one more than ninety aeons
I went not to a place of grief. Verse 3Walt 162 Giving him material goods,
I then experienced all of that.
Having given those three sweetmeats
I attained the unshaking state. Verse 4Walt 163 My defilements are now burnt up;
all new existence is destroyed.
Like elephants with broken chains,
I am living without constraint. Verse 5Walt 164 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 165 The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught! Verse 7
Thus indeed Bhikkhunī Modakadāyikā spoke these verses.
The legend of Modakadāyikā Therī is finished.
