[294] I was a wearer of bark-fibre garments, clad in an antelope hide as my upper garment; I had brought forth the five superknowledges (abhiññā), and I could stroke the very moon.
Having seen Vipassī, the Light of the World, come to me, I held up pārichattaka flowers for the Teacher.
In the ninety-first eon (kappa) from this one, since I held up that flower, I know of no bad destination (duggati): this is the fruit of that holding.
In the eighty-seventh eon from this one, I was a lord of the earth, a wheel-turning monarch (cakkavatti) of great might, Samantadharaṇa by name.
The four analytic insights (paṭisambhidā), and also these eight liberations (vimokkha), and the six superknowledges have been realized; the Buddha's teaching (sāsana) has been fulfilled.
Thus indeed the Venerable Pupphadhāraka the Elder spoke these verses.
The Apadāna of the Elder Pupphadhāraka is concluded.
Third: the Apadāna of the Elder Chattadāyaka (293)
