Dvādasama Pariccheda

Thero moggaliputto so, jinasāsana jotako;

Niṭṭhāpetvāna saṃgītiṃ, pekkhamāno anāgataṃ.

Sāsanassa patiṭṭhānaṃ, paccantesu avekkhiya;

Pesesi kattike māse, tete there tahiṃ tahiṃ.

Theraṃ kasmīragandhāraṃ, majjhantikamapesayi;

Apesayī mahādeva-ttheraṃ mahisamaṇḍalaṃ.

Vanavāsiṃ apesayi, theraṃ rakkhitanāmakaṃ;

Tathā’parantakaṃ yona-dhammarakkhitanāmakaṃ.

Mahāraṭṭhaṃ mahādhamma-rakkhitatthera nāmakaṃ;

Mahārakkhita theraṃ taṃ, yona lokamapesayi.

Pesesi majjhimaṃ theraṃ, himavantapadesakaṃ;

Suvaṇṇabhūmiṃ there dve, soṇamuttara meva ca.

Mahāmahindattheraṃ taṃ, thera iṭṭiyamuttiyaṃ;

Sambalaṃ bhaddasālañca, sake saddhivihārike.

Laṃkādīpe manuññamhi, manuññaṃ jinasāsanaṃ;

Patiṭṭhāpetha tumhe’ti, pañca there apesayi.

Tadā kasmīragandhāre, pakkaṃ sassaṃ mahiddhiko;

Aravālo nāgarājā, vassaṃ karakasaññitaṃ.

Vassā petvā samuddasmiṃ, sabbaṃ khipatidāruṇo;

Tatra majjhantikatthero, khippaṃ gantvā vihāyasā.

Aravāladahevāri-piṭṭhe caṅkamanādike;

Akāsi disvā taṃnāgā, ruṭṭhārañño nivedayuṃ.

Nāgarājā’tharuṭṭho so, vividhā bhisikā’kari;

Vātā mahantā vāyanti, megho gajjati vassati.

Phalantya’saniyo vijju, niccharanti tato tato;

Mahiruhā pabbatānaṃ, kūṭāni papatanti ca.

Virūparūpā nāgā ca, bhiṃsāpenti samantato;

Sayaṃ dhupāyati jalati, akkosanto anekadhā.

Sabbaṃ taṃ iddhiyā thero, paṭibāhiya bhiṃsanaṃ;

Avoca nāgarājaṃ taṃ, dassento balamuttamaṃ.

Sadeva kopi ce loko, āgantvā tāsayeyya maṃ;

Na me paṭibalo assa, janetuṃ bhayabheravaṃ.

Sace’pi tvaṃ mahiṃ sabbaṃ, sasamuddaṃ sapabbataṃ;

Ukkhipitvā mahānāga, khipeyyāsi mamo’pari.

Neva me sakkuṇeyyāsi, janetuṃ bhayabheravaṃ;

Aññadatthu tave‘va’ssa, vighāto uragādhipa.

Taṃsutvā nimmadassa’ssa, thero dhammamadesayi;

Tato saraṇasīlesu, nāgarājā patiṭṭhahi.

Tatheva caturāsīti-sahassāni bhujaṅgamā;

Himavanteva gandhabbā, yakkhā kumbhaṇḍakā bahū.

Paṇḍako nāma yakkho tu, saddhiṃhārita yakkhiyā;

Pañcasatehi puttehi, phalaṃ pāpuṇi ādikaṃ.

‘‘Mā’’dāni kodhaṃ janiyittha, ito uddhaṃ yathāpure;

Sasaghātañca mā’kattha, sukhakāmāhi pāṇino.

Karotha mettaṃ sattesu, vasantu manujā sukhaṃ;

Iti tenā’nusiṭṭhā te, tatheva paṭipajjisuṃ.

Tato ratanapallaṅke, theraṃ so uragādhipo;

Nisīdāpiya aṭṭhāsi, bījamāno tadantike.

Tadā kasmīragandhāra-vāsino manujā’gatā;

Nāgarājassa pūjatthaṃ, mantvā theraṃ mahiddhikaṃ.

Theramevā’bhi vādetvā, ekamantaṃ nisīdisuṃ;

Tesaṃ dhammamadesesi, thero āsivisopamaṃ.

Asītiyā sahassānaṃ, dhammābhisamayo ahu;

Satasahassa purisā, pabbajuṃ therasantike.

Tatoppabhupati kasmira-gandhāraṃ te idānipi;

Āsuṃ kāsāva pajjotā, vatthuttayaparāyanā.

Gantvā mahādevatthero, desaṃ mahisamaṇḍalaṃ;

Suttantaṃ devadūtaṃ so, kathesi janamajjhago.

Cattālīsa sahassāni, dhammacakkhuṃ visodhayuṃ;

Cattālīsa sahassāni, pabbajiṃsu tadantike.

Gantvā’tha rakkhitatthero, vanavāsiṃ nabhe ṭhito;

Saṃyuttamanamataggaṃ, kathesi janamajjhago.

Saṭṭhi narasahassānaṃ, dhammābhisamayo ahu;

Sattatiṃsa sahassāni, pabbajiṃsu tadantike.

Vihārānaṃ pañcasataṃ, tasmiṃdese patiṭṭhahi;

Patiṭṭhāpesi tatthevaṃ, thero so jinasāsanaṃ.

Gantvā’parantakaṃ thero, yonako dhammarakkhito;

Aggikkhandhopamaṃ suttaṃ, kathetvā janamajjhago.

Sattatiṃsa sahassāni, pāṇe tattha samāgate;

Dhammāmatamapāyesi, dhammā dhammesu kovido.

Purisānañca sahassañca, itthiyo ca tato’dhikā;

Khattiyānaṃ kulāyeva, nikkhamitvāna pabbajuṃ.

Mahāraṭṭhamisī gantvā, so mahādhammarakkhito;

Mahānāradakassapavhaṃ, jātakaṃ kathayī tahiṃ.

Maggaphalaṃ pāpuṇiṃsu, caturāsīti sahassakā;

Terasantu sahassāni, pabbajiṃsu tadantike.

Gantvāna yonavisayaṃ, so mahādhammarakkhito isi;

Kāḷakārāma suttantaṃ, kathesi janamajjhago.

Pāṇasata sahassāni, sahassāni ca sattati;

Maggaphalaṃ pāpuṇiṃsu, dasa sahassāni pabbajuṃ.

Gantvā catūhi therehi, desesi majjhimo isi;

Himavantapadesasmiṃ, dhammacakkapavattanaṃ.

Maggaphalapāpuṇiṃsu, asītipāṇa koṭiyo;

Visuṃ te pañcaraṭṭhāni, pañcatherā pasādayuṃ.

Purisasatasahassāni, ekekasseva santike;

Pabbajiṃsu pasādena, sammāsambuddha sāsane.

Saddhiṃ uttaratherena, soṇatthero mahiddhiko;

Suvaṇṇabhūmiṃ agamā, tasmiṃ tu samaye pana.

Jāte jāte rājagehe, dārake ruddarakkhasī;

Samuddato nikkhamitvā, bhakkhitvā pana gacchati.

Tasmiṃ khaṇe rājagehe,

Jāto hoti kumārako;

There manussā passitvā,

Rakkhasānaṃ sahāyakā.

Iti cintiya māretuṃ, sā yuvā upasaṅkamuṃ;

‘‘Kimetanti’’ca pucchitvā, theraṃ te eva māhute.

Samaṇā mayaṃ himavantā, na rakkhasi sahāyakā;

Rakkhasī sā saparisā, nikkhantā hoti sāgarā.

Taṃ disvāna mahārāvaṃ, viraviṃsu mahājanā;

Diguṇe rakkhase thero, māpayitvā bhayānake.

Taṃ rakkhasiṃ saparisaṃ, parikkhipi samantato;

Idaṃ imehi uddhanti, mantvā bhītā palāyisā.

Tassa desassa ārakkhaṃ, ṭhapetvāna samantato;

Tasmiṃ samāgame thero, brahmajālamadesayi.

Saraṇesu ca sīlesu, aṭṭhaṃsu bahavo janā;

Saṭṭhiyā tu sahassānaṃ, dhammābhisamayo ahu.

Aḍḍhuḍḍhāni sahassāni, pabbajuṃ kuladārakā;

Pabbajiṃsu diyaḍḍhantu, sahassaṃ kuladhītaro.

Tatoppabhuti sañjāte, rājagehe kumārake;

Nāmaṃ kariṃsu rājāno, soṇuttara sanāmake.

Mahājanassāpi jinassa kaḍḍhanaṃ;

Vihāya pattaṃ amataṃ sukhampite;

Kariṃsu lokassa hitaṃ tahiṃ tahiṃ;

Bhaveyya yo lokahite pamādavāti.
