एकमन्तं ठितो खो पञ्चालचण्डो देवपुत्तो भगवतो सन्तिके इमं गाथं अभासि:
Ekamantaṁ ṭhito kho pañcālacaṇḍo devaputto bhagavato santike imaṁ gāthaṁ abhāsi:
Standing to one side, the god Pañcālacaṇḍa recited this verse in the Buddha’s presence:
“सम्बाधे वत ओकासं, अविन्दि भूरिमेधसो; यो झानमबुज्झि बुद्धो, पटिलीननिसभो मुनी”ति।
“Sambādhe vata okāsaṁ, Avindi bhūrimedhaso; Yo jhānamabujjhi1 buddho, Paṭilīnanisabho munī”ti.
“The opening amid confinement was discovered by the Buddha of vast intelligence, who woke up to jhāna, the sage, the solitary bull.”
“सम्बाधे वापि विन्दन्ति, (पञ्चालचण्डाति भगवा) धम्मं निब्बानपत्तिया; ये सतिं पच्चलत्थंसु, सम्मा ते सुसमाहिता”ति।
“Sambādhe vāpi vindanti, (pañcālacaṇḍāti bhagavā) Dhammaṁ nibbānapattiyā; Ye satiṁ paccalatthaṁsu, Sammā te susamāhitā”ti.
“Even amid confinement they discover,” said the Buddha to Pañcālacaṇḍa, “the principle for attaining Nibbana. Those who have acquired mindfulness are perfectly serene in samādhi.”
