[75. Ekasaññaka1]
Vipassi’s chief follower was
[the arahant who was] named Khaṇḍa
who got the world’s sacrifices;
I gave one alms-meal [to him then]. (1) [1440]
Due to that pleasure in [my] heart
for the Biped-Lord, Bull of Men,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that is the fruit of one alms-meal. (2) [1441]
In the fortieth aeon ago
the Kṣatriyan named Varuṇa
was a wheel-turner with great strength,
possessor of the seven gems. (3) [1442]
The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
[I have] done what the Buddha taught! (4) [1443]
Thus indeed Venerable Ekasaññaka Thera spoke these verses.
The legend of Ekasaññaka Thera is finished.
