[1144] When the four bases of spiritual power (iddhipāda) have been developed and cultivated in this way, a bhikkhu recollects his manifold past abodes (pubbenivāsa); that is: one birth, two births, three births, four births, five births, ten births, twenty births, thirty births, forty births, fifty births, a hundred births, a thousand births, a hundred thousand births, many aeons of world-contraction, many aeons of world-expansion, many aeons of world-contraction and expansion: "There I was so named, of such a clan, of such an appearance; such was my food, such my experience of pleasure and pain, such the limit of my life-span. Passing away from there, I arose elsewhere; and there too I was so named, of such a clan, of such an appearance; such was my food, such my experience of pleasure and pain, such the limit of my life-span. Passing away from there, I arose here." Thus he recollects his manifold past abodes with their aspects and particulars.
