The Legends of the Theras

130. Padumapūjaka

In the Himalayan region,
there’s a mountain named Gotama.
It’s covered with various trees,
and the lair of a great group of ghosts.

In the middle of that mountain
an ashram had been constructed.
Surrounded by my own students,
I lived in that ashram back then.

“Let the student-group come to me;
let them bring me a pink lotus;
let us do a Buddha-pūjā
for the Biped-Lord, Neutral One.”

Having assented, “yes, sir, let’s
they brought a pink lotus flower.
Making an occasion for it,
I offered it to the Buddha.

Then, assembling the students,
I thus advised them thoroughly:
“Don’t you ever be neglectful;
be diligent, bring happiness.”

Having thus advised those students
who were patient about my words,
and bound to diligent virtue,
I passed away there at that time.

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

In the fifty-first aeon hence
there was a king, Jaluttama,
a wheel-turner with great power,
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 Padumapūjaka Thera spoke these verses.

The legend of Padumapūjaka Thera is finished.
