I was a deer-hunter back then,
within a grove in the forest.
Having seen a piyal flower
I tossed it on the traveled road.

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

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

Thus indeed Venerable Piyālapupphiya Thera spoke these verses.

The legend of Piyālapupphiya Thera is finished.
