[288] As he was proceeding along the street — the receiver of oblations,
the lord of the two-footed, the great nāga, the eldest of the world, the bull among men —
having had him summoned, I gave an attendant to him,
the seeker of the welfare of all the world — to Siddhattha, the great seer.
Having accepted him, the Sambuddha, the great sage, gave him back;
rising from that seat, he departed facing east.
In the ninety-fourth aeon (kappa) from now I then gave the attendant;
I know of no bad destination: this is the fruit of attendance.
In the fifty-seventh aeon from now there was one bearing the name Balasena,
endowed with the seven treasures, a universal monarch (cakkavatti) of great power.
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 Upaṭṭhāyika the Elder spoke these verses.
The Apadāna of Upaṭṭhāyika the Elder is concluded.
The seventh: the Apadāna of Apadāniya the Elder (287).
