[81] I saw the stainless Buddha, Vipassī, the Leader of the World, shining like a kaṇikāra tree, seated in a mountain cleft. Holding up three kiṅkaṇi flowers, I offered them; and having worshipped the Fully Awakened One, I departed facing south. By that well-done deed (kamma) and by my volitional aspirations (cetanā-paṇidhi), having abandoned the human body, I went to Tāvatiṃsa. In the ninety-first aeon (kappa) from now, since I worshipped the Buddha, I know of no bad destination (duggati): this is the fruit of worshipping the Buddha. My defilements (kilesa) have been burned away; all existences (bhava) have been uprooted; like an elephant that has burst its bonds, I dwell free from 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 (sāsana) has been fulfilled. The four analytic insights (paṭisambhidā), and these eight liberations (vimokkha) as well, and the six superknowledges (chaḷabhiññā) have been realized; the Buddha's teaching has been fulfilled. Thus indeed did the Venerable Tīṇikiṅkaṇipupphiya Thera speak these verses. The Apadāna of Tīṇikiṅkaṇipupphiya Thera is concluded. Second: The Apadāna of Paṃsukūlapūjaka Thera (492)
