Sitting in my superb palace,
I saw the Victor, Vipassi,
splendid like an arjuna tree,
the Omniscient One, Undefiled.

As the World-Leader went across
the area near the palace,
his aura spread out everywhere
as though that light came from the sun.

Taking up some perfumed water
I sprinkled the Best Buddha then,
and with that pleasure in my heart,
I passed away right on the spot.

In the ninety-one aeons since
I sprinkled that perfumed water,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that’s the fruit of Buddha-pūjā.

In the thirty-first aeon hence
the Kṣatriyan named Sugandha,
was a wheel-turner with great strength,
possessor of the seven gems.

The four analytical modes,
and these eight deliverances,
six special knowledges mastered,
I have done what the Buddha taught!

Thus indeed Venerable Gandhodakiya Thera spoke these verses.

The legend of Gandhodakiya Thera is finished.
