[71] Then, that great being, his mind overcome with pity, gladdening them with great words, and filling the quarters with his voice, [said]: (1) "For this very purpose was this exhibited to you by me. I will tell in due order, listen to these words of mine. (2) By meritorious deeds one obtains abundance of wealth and of virtues. In this world and in the next; and it is by meritorious deeds that I am possessed of great power. (3) If pain is not dear to you, but abundance of happiness is, quickly perform meritorious deeds; happy is the accumulation of merit. (4) Whatsoever abundance of happiness as well as bliss is obtained in this world and in the next, that is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (5) What extensive wealth the rich the merchants, the Brahmins, caravan leaders and others enjoy, that is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone.(6) That men have a delightful abundance of women, servants, children and friends, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (7) That a man is illustrious having obtained abundance of beauty and charm that captivates the mind and eyes, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (8) That mortals indeed obtain an inalienable retinue and an inexhaustible abundance of wealth, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (9) That men attain recollection of former existences., good fortune, and acceptability of speech, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (10) That men, delighted, always in the company of kinsmen, enjoy copious abundance of wealth, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (11) That men have unlimited abundance of wealth, unrivaled and lasting, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (12) That there are indeed people in the region of Uttarakuru, who are unselfish, have renounced possessions and are assured of a long life, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (13) That men enjoy there in very wonderful rice, grains of rice not ploughed and sown, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (14) That therein men wear bright clothes issuing from the wish-fulfilling tree, and ornaments, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (15) That men in the region of Uttarakuru, on dying, immediately become gods, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (16) That Nāgas in Pātāla, like divinities, enjoy divine abundance such as feeding on nectar, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (17) That lords of men attain abundance consisting of regal glory such as majesty, like gods, and shine forth, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (18) That kings having become universal emperors by their strength shine forth like the lord of gods, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (19) That a universal emperor, too, enjoys abundance such as the seven jewels, complete and comprising all men, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (20) That Daityas such as Vemacitra having obtained, enjoy prosperity equal to that of the Lord of the Thirty-Three, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (21) What variegated splendour the four guardians of the world such as Kubera, joyfully enjoy, that is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (22) That the gods, together with divine damsels enjoy splendour of forest parks such as Nandana, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (23) That the lord of the Thirty-Three, ever delighted, enjoys manifold abundance such as kingship over the gods, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (24) That gods dwelling in aerial chariots enjoy divine pleasures, as desired, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (25) That some gods are superior even to (other) gods, in respect of the ten conditions such as life span, complexion, strength, etc., is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (26) That the lord of the sphere of desire enjoys abundance of enjoyment that is divine, variegated and the best in the sphere of desire, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (27) That among gods and men they effortlessly get their wishes as desired, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (28) That gods such as Brahmā, contemplating in the stages of contemplation, attain the highest happiness, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (29) That contemplators obtain happiness born of contemplation, happiness arising from the removal of craving, and happiness that is peaceful, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (30) That there are disciples of the enlightened One possessed of noble qualities, of great power and magnanimous, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (31) That even those magnanimous ones who are Pratyekasambuddhas (fully enlightened themselves) attain enlightenment after hundreds of Kālpas, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (32) That there are perfectly enlightened ones adorned with unlimited peerless virtues, is the fruit of meritorious deeds alone. (33) By meritorious deeds do men obtain women who abound in beauty and youth, are the ornament of their families, and are well-disposed and attractive. (34) By meritorious deeds is heaven obtained, of meritorious deeds are divine damsels the fruit: cherished success in all desires is obtained by meritorious deeds. (35) By meritorious deeds is obtained a mind that is keen as well as free from impurities: by meritorious deeds is obtained faith in the stages of ecstacy 2, by meritorious deeds is obtained clearer mindfulness. (36) By meritorious deeds are obtained all the glorious magnificences of virtue: being beloved, eloquence, the possession of a melodious voice and fame. (37) There is not that happiness in the world which cannot be obtained by meritorious deeds. Therefore, those desirous of happiness should ever perform the accumulation of merit. (38) Having performed a trifling act of merit towards the Tathāgata Vipaśyin, fruit was exceedingly obtained by me in accordance with my desires. (39) Happily did I enjoy the power of sovereign lordship in the six assemblies of gods for thousands of crores of births. (40) Become universal emperors, etc., I enjoyed unlimited, peerless and supreme abundance of pleasures, among men. (41) By the greatness of that act of merit, wherever I was born I was exalted, and attended with happiness. (42) Handsome, endowed with learning, and with a mouth possessing the fragrance of lotuses, (I was) beloved and of acceptable speech, being endowed with a very pleasant voice. (43) Behold, even now, this cherished, this pleasant abundance of virtues such as beauty of figure, the fruit of that same act of merit. (44) I am born in a noble family of great wealth and possessions; my body is clothed in garments resembling jambunada gold. (45) From my whole body wafts a fragrance like that of sandal; from my mouth blows a fragrance, truly that of a blue lotus. (46) Whatever abundance of garments and jewels I desire, all that, too, gets accomplished for me by the mere thought thereof. (47) I have obtained ordainment, too, in the teaching of the Lion of the Śākya’s. The state of Arhat, too, have I reached; become tranquil, I have attained bliss. (48) This is my final birth, there is no further birth for me; I will not come back (to the cycle of existence) again, free from the depravities, I will attain Nirvāṇa. (49) Even now, being such, I do not realize the limit of the extent of the fruit of its maturing which was produced by that act." (50)
