Walt 20 I had a stupa constructed
for Siddhattha, the Blessed One.
I gifted my waist ornament
so the Teacher could be repaired. Verse 1
Walt 21 When that great stupa was finished,
I gave another ornament
for the Sage, the Guide of the World,
feeling well-pleased by my own hands. Verse 2
Walt 22 In the ninety-four aeons since
I gave that waist-ornament then,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that’s the fruit of building stupas. Verse 3
Walt 23 My defilements are now burnt up;
all new existence is destroyed.
Like elephants with broken chains,
I am living without constraint. Verse 4
Walt 24 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 5
Walt 25 The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught! Verse 6
Thus indeed Bhikkhunī Mekhalādāyikā Therī spoke these verses.
The legend of Mekhalādāyikā Therī is finished.
