enjoy these airborne palaces of the Brahmās. Sugata, enjoy these airborne palaces of the Brahmās.’

“Bhikṣus, then those Mahābrahmās each offered to the Bhagavān their own airborne palace, and at that time, in the presence of the Bhagavān, they fittingly praised him with these verses:

“ ‘It is difficult to see the guides.
You have arrived well and have defeated existence’s desires.
After a very long time you are seen today.
After a full hundred eons you have appeared. {39}

“ ‘Lord of the World, quench the thirst of beings.
Never seen before, you have somehow appeared.
Just as the fig tree flower is rarely found,
In that way, Guide, you have been seen. {40}

“ ‘Guide, these airborne palaces of ours
Today were beautified through your power.
You who see all, please accept them,
And enjoy them out of compassion for us.’ {41}

“Bhikṣus, the Mahābrahmās in the presence of the tathāgata, the arhat, the perfectly enlightened buddha Mahābhijñā­jñānābhi­bhū fittingly praised him with those verses, and then said to the Bhagavān, ‘Bhagavān, turn the wheel of the Dharma in the world! Bhagavān, teach nirvāṇa! Bhagavān, liberate beings! Bhagavān, take this world into your care!

“ ‘Bhagavān, teach the Dharma to the world, including its devas, māras, and brahmakas, to beings including mendicants and brahmins, and to the devas, asuras, and humans. Then there will be benefit for many beings, happiness for many beings, compassion for the world, and welfare, benefit, and happiness for a great multitude of beings, devas, and humans.’
