4895 “Himavantassāvidūre,

asoko nāma pabbato;

Tatthāsi assamo mayhaṃ,

vissakammena māpito.

46.

4896 Sumedho nāma sambuddho,

aggo kāruṇiko muni;

Nivāsayitvā pubbaṇhe,

piṇḍāya me upāgami.

47.

4897 Upāgataṃ mahāvīraṃ,

sumedhaṃ lokanāyakaṃ;

Paggayha sugatapattaṃ,

sappitelaṃ apūrayiṃ.

48.

4898 Datvānahaṃ buddhaseṭṭhe,

sumedhe lokanāyake;

Añjaliṃ paggahetvāna,

bhiyyo hāsaṃ janesahaṃ.

49.

4899 Iminā sappidānena,

cetanāpaṇidhīhi ca;

Devabhūto manusso vā,

labhāmi vipulaṃ sukhaṃ.

50.

4900 Vinipātaṃ vivajjetvā,

saṃsarāmi bhavābhave;

Tattha cittaṃ paṇidhitvā,

labhāmi acalaṃ padaṃ.

51.

4901 ‘Lābhā tuyhaṃ suladdhaṃ te,

yaṃ maṃ addakkhi brāhmaṇa;

Mama dassanamāgamma,

arahattaṃ bhavissati.

52.

4902 Vissattho hohi mā bhāyi,

adhigantvā mahāyasaṃ;

Mamañhi sappiṃ datvāna,

parimokkhasi jātiyā’.

53.

4903 Iminā sappidānena,

cetanāpaṇidhīhi ca;

Devabhūto manusso vā,

labhase vipulaṃ sukhaṃ.

54.

4904 Iminā sappidānena,

mettacittavatāya ca;

Aṭṭhārase kappasate,

devaloke ramissasi.

55.

4905 Aṭṭhatiṃsatikkhattuñca,

devarājā bhavissasi;

Padesarajjaṃ vipulaṃ,

gaṇanāto asaṅkhiyaṃ.

56.

4906 Ekapaññāsakkhattuñca,

cakkavattī bhavissasi;

Cāturanto vijitāvī,

jambumaṇḍassa issaro.

57.

4907 Mahāsamuddovakkhobho,

duddharo pathavī yathā;

Evamevaṃ ca te bhogā,

appameyyā bhavissare.

58.

4908 Saṭṭhikoṭī hiraññassa,

cajitvā pabbajiṃ ahaṃ;

Kiṃ kusalaṃ gavesanto,

bāvariṃ upasaṅkamiṃ.

59.

4909 Tattha mante adhīyāmi,

chaḷaṅgaṃ nāma lakkhaṇaṃ;

Tamandhakāraṃ vidhamaṃ,

uppajji tvaṃ mahāmuni.

60.

4910 Tava dassanakāmohaṃ,

āgatomhi mahāmuni;

Tava dhammaṃ suṇitvāna,

pattomhi acalaṃ padaṃ.

61.

4911 Tiṃsakappasahassamhi,

sappiṃ buddhassadāsahaṃ;

Etthantare nābhijāne,

sappiṃ viññāpitaṃ mayā.

62.

4912 Mama saṅkappamaññāya,

uppajjati yadicchakaṃ;

Cittamaññāya nibbattaṃ,

sabbe santappayāmahaṃ.

63.

4913 Aho buddhā aho dhammā,

aho no satthu sampadā;

Thokañhi sappiṃ datvāna,

appameyyaṃ labhāmahaṃ.

64.

4914 Mahāsamudde udakaṃ,

yāvatā nerupassato;

Mama sappiṃ upādāya,

kalabhāgaṃ na hessati.

65.

4915 Yāvatā cakkavāḷassa,

kariyantassa rāsito;

Mama nibbattavatthānaṃ,

okāso so na sammati.

66.

4916 Pabbatarājā himavā,

pavaropi siluccayo;

Mamānulittagandhassa,

upanidhiṃ na hessati.

67.

4917 Vatthaṃ gandhañca sappiñca,

aññañca diṭṭhadhammikaṃ;

Asaṅkhatañca nibbānaṃ,

sappidānassidaṃ phalaṃ.

68.

4918 Satipaṭṭhānasayano,

samādhijhānagocaro;

Bojjhaṅgabhojano ajja,

sappidānassidaṃ phalaṃ.

4919 Kilesā jhāpitā mayhaṃ,

…pe…

viharāmi anāsavo.
