Walt 3821 When Kakusandha passed away,
the Brahmin, the Perfected One,
gathering salaḷa flowers,
I constructed a pavilion. Verse 1
Walt 3822 Having gone to Tāvatiṁsa,
I received a supreme mansion.
I surpassed all the other gods:
that is the fruit of good karma. Verse 2
Walt 3823 Whether it’s the day or the night,
walking back and forth or standing,
I’m covered with salaḷa blooms:
that is the fruit of good karma. Verse 3
Walt 3824 Within just this present aeon
since I thus worshipped the Buddha,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that’s the fruit of Buddha-pūjā. Verse 4
Walt 3825 My defilements are now burnt up;
all new existence is destroyed.
All defilements are exhausted;
now there will be no more rebirth. Verse 5
Walt 3826 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 6
Walt 3827 The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught! Verse 7
Thus indeed Venerable Salaḷamaṇḍapiya Thera spoke these verses.
The legend of Salaḷamaṇḍapiya Thera is finished.
