[52] While the Blessed One Sikhī, the Kinsman of the World, was being cremated,
I placed eight campaka flowers upon the pyre.
Since in the thirty-first aeon from now I placed that flower,
I know of no bad destination: this is the fruit of worshipping the Buddha.
My defilements (kilesa) have been burned away; all existences have been utterly uprooted;
like an elephant that has burst its bonds, I dwell without taints (āsava).
Welcome indeed was my coming into the presence of my Buddha;
the three true knowledges (vijjā) have been attained; the Buddha's teaching has been fulfilled.
The four analytic insights (paṭisambhidā), and also these eight liberations (vimokkha),
and the six superknowledges (abhiññā) have been realized; the Buddha's teaching has been fulfilled.
Thus indeed the Venerable Citakapūjaka the Elder spoke these verses.
The Apadāna of the Elder Citakapūjaka is concluded.
The third: the Apadāna of the Elder Citakanibbāpaka (463)
