The Legends of the Theras

Avaṇṭaphala Chapter, the Thirty-Ninth

378. Avaṇṭaphaladāyaka

The Blessed One, Hundred-Rayed One,
the Self-Become, Unconquered One,
Seclusion-Lover, Sambuddha,
went forth in order to seek food.

Holding fruit in my hand, I saw
the Bull of Men who had approached.
Happy, with pleasure in my heart,
I gave him fruit with stems removed.

In the ninety-four aeons since
I gave him that fruit at that time,
I’ve come to know no bad rebirth:
that is the fruit of giving fruit.

Being in Best Buddha’s presence
was a very good thing for me.
The three knowledges are attained;
I have done what the Buddha taught!

My defilements are now burnt up;
all new existence is destroyed.
Like elephants with broken chains,
I am living without constraint.

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

Thus indeed Venerable Avaṇṭaphaladāyaka Thera spoke these verses.

The legend of Avaṇṭaphaladāyaka Thera is finished.
