[158] Not far from Himavant is the mountain named Kukkuṭa;
at the foot of that mountain dwelt those seven Buddhas.
Seeing a kadamba tree in bloom, risen up like the king of lamps,
taking [the flowers] up in both hands, I strewed them over the seven Buddhas.
In the ninety-fourth aeon (kappa) from the present, since I offered that flower,
I know of no bad destination (duggati): this is the fruit of worshipping the Buddhas (buddhapūjā).
In the ninety-second aeon from the present there were seven¹ [kings] named Puppha,
universal monarchs (cakkavattī) endowed with the seven treasures, of great might.
The four analytic insights (paṭisambhidā), and also these eight liberations (vimokkha),
and the six superknowledges (abhiññā) have been realized; the Buddha's teaching (sāsana) has been fulfilled.
It was thus, indeed, that the Venerable Elder Kadambapupphiya spoke these verses.
The Apadāna of the Elder Kadambapupphiya is concluded.
