11.19

“Because of my longing for this samādhi,
Avoiding all wickedness
I served that dharmabhāṇaka
With my flesh and my blood. {43}

“Those who wept when they saw the bhikṣu
Afflicted by the agony of his illness
Became irreversible in their progress in all their lifetimes
And were never reborn into the lower existences. {44}

“They never had illness of the eyes,
No illness of the head, no illness of the ears,
No illness of the nose, no illness of the tongue,
And never any illness of the teeth. {45}

“Those who attended the sick monk
Became always very attractive,
Their bodies shining with splendor and majesty,
Adorned by the vivid thirty-two signs of hundreds of merits. {46}

“They have entered homelessness in my teaching
And in future times when the supreme enlightenment is vanishing
They will obtain the treasure of the tathāgatas,
And see ten thousand million buddhas. {47}

“Having obtained this supreme enlightenment,
They will always keep it and venerate it.
And having accomplished great benefit for beings,
They will see the supreme human, Akṣobhya. {48}

“When they have heard this unsurpassable conduct
They will attain the superior, unworldly joy.
When they hear of my past conduct
They will make vast offerings to the buddhas. {49}

“When wise bhikṣus with correct conduct are seen
They should always be served with sincerity.
Forsaking harshness and anger,¹¹⁸⁸
Always serve the bhikṣu dharmabhāṇakas. {50}

“Forsaking aggression and wrath,
Make offerings to my sons, the protectors of the Dharma.
Do not be blind for many millions of eons
And fall into the lower existences and experience suffering. {51}

“Those who are malicious toward each other
Will not be protected by correct conduct, or by learning.
They will not be protected by dhyāna or by solitude,
Nor by generosity or offering to buddhas.” {52}
