[203]
Seeing a kaṇikāra tree in bloom, I then plucked (a flower)
and offered it to Tissa, who had crossed the flood (ogha), the steadfast one (tādī).
In the ninety-second aeon (kappa) from now, since I offered that flower,
I know of no bad destination (duggati): this is the fruit of the offering to the Buddha (buddhapūjā).
In the thirty-fifth aeon from now there was one renowned as Aruṇapāla,
a universal monarch (cakkavatti) endowed with the seven treasures, of great might.
The four analytic insights (paṭisambhidā), and also these eight liberations (vimokkha),
the six superknowledges (chaḷabhiññā) have been realized; the Buddha's teaching (sāsana) has been fulfilled.
Thus indeed the Venerable Elder Kaṇikārapupphiya spoke these verses.
The Apadāna of the Elder Kaṇikārapupphiya is concluded.
