Verses of the Senior Monks 2.41
The Book of the Twos
Chapter Five
Kassapa the Prince
Oh, the Buddhas! Oh, the Dhammas!
Oh, the accomplishments of the Teacher!
Here a disciple may realize
such a teaching for themselves.
Through countless eons
they obtained substantial forms.
This is their last,
their very final body
in the transmigration through births and deaths;
now there’ll be no more future lives.
