[228. Miñjavaṭaŋsakiya1]
When the World’s Lord reached nirvana,
Sikhi, Best among Debaters,
I did pūjā to [his] Bodhi2
[by] covering [it] with hair-wreaths. (1) [2411]
In the thirty-one aeons since
I did that pūjā at that time,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that’s the fruit of Bodhi-pūjā. (2) [2412]
In the twenty-sixth aeon hence
there was one known as Meghabbha,3
a wheel-turning king with great strength,
possessor of the seven gems. (3) [2413]
The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
[I have] done what the Buddha taught! (4) [2414]
Thus indeed Venerable Miñjavaṭaŋsakiya Thera spoke these verses.
The legend of Miñjavaṭaŋsakiya Thera is finished.
