Conclusion

Evam se udahu anuttaranani, anuttaradamsi anuttarananadamsanadhare.

Attanam jo janai jo ya logam, jo agatim janai nagatim ca.

Jo sasayam jana asasayam ca, jatim maranam ca cayanovavatam.

Aho vi sattana vi thahunam ca, jo asavam janati samvaram ca.

Dukkham ca jo janai nijjaram ca, so bhasiumarihati kiriyavadam. (747 & 748)

Laddham aladdhapuvvam, jinavayana-subhasidam amidabhudam.

Gahido suggaimaggo, naham maranassa bihemi. (749)

of the form of nectar; I have taken up the pathe leading to a happy future birth-so that I may no
more be afraid of death. (749)
