1.

‘‘Imamhi bhaddake kappe, brahmabandhu mahāyaso;

Kassapo nāma gottena, uppajji vadataṃ varo.

2.

‘‘Nippapañco nirālambo, ākāsasamamānaso;

Suññatābahulo tādī, animittarato vasī.

3.

‘‘Asaṅgacitto nikleso ², asaṃsaṭṭho kule gaṇe;

Mahākāruṇiko vīro, vinayopāyakovido.

4.

‘‘Uyyutto parakiccesu, vinayanto sadevake;

Nibbānagamanaṃ maggaṃ, gatiṃ paṅkavisosanaṃ.

5.

‘‘Amataṃ paramassādaṃ, jarāmaccunivāraṇaṃ;

Mahāparisamajjhe so, nisinno lokatārako.

6.

‘‘Karavīkaruto ⁴ nātho, brahmaghoso tathāgato;

Uddharanto mahāduggā, vippanaṭṭhe anāyake.

7.

‘‘Desento virajaṃ dhammaṃ, diṭṭho me lokanāyako;

Tassa dhammaṃ suṇitvāna, pabbajiṃ anagāriyaṃ.

8.

‘‘Pabbajitvā tadāpāhaṃ, cintento jinasāsanaṃ;

Ekakova vane ramme, vasiṃ saṃsaggapīḷito.

9.

‘‘Sakkāyavūpakāso me, hetubhūto mamābhavī ⁶;

Manaso vūpakāsassa, saṃsaggabhayadassino.

10.

‘‘Kilesā jhāpitā mayhaṃ, bhavā sabbe samūhatā;

Nāgova bandhanaṃ chetvā, viharāmi anāsavo.

11.

‘‘Svāgataṃ vata me āsi, mama buddhassa santike;

Tisso vijjā anuppattā, kataṃ buddhassa sāsanaṃ.

12.

‘‘Paṭisambhidā catasso, vimokkhāpi ca aṭṭhime;

Chaḷabhiññā sacchikatā, kataṃ buddhassa sāsanaṃ’’.

Itthaṃ sudaṃ āyasmā ekavihāriko thero imā gāthāyo

Abhāsitthāti.

Ekavihārikattherassāpadānaṃ paṭhamaṃ.
