Vipassi Buddha, Golden One,
was standing on a river bank,
Worthy of Homage, the Teacher,
Honored by the Monks’ Assembly.

Boats for crossing the great ocean
were not to be found in that place.
Having gone forth from that river
I helped the World’s Leader across.

In the ninety-one aeons since
I helped the Best Person to cross,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that is the fruit of ferrying.

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

Thus indeed Venerable Taraṇiya Thera spoke these verses.

The legend of Taraṇiya Thera is finished.

The Summary:

Ukkhepi, Tela and Candi,
Dipada and Biḷālida,
Maccha, Java, Salaḷada,
Rakkhasa, Taraṇa makes ten
and here the verses are counted
as exactly forty plus one.
