緇門警訓 10.2

10.2

I bow my head to Śākyamuni Buddha of hundreds of millions of transformation bodies, / Who practiced through three asaṃkhyeya kalpas, perfecting the myriad practices.
With the finest flaws removed, the dharma-nature settled into clarity; / With every bit of goodness complete, the reward and transformation bodies are wondrous and subtle.
Thereafter, he was reborn above in Tuṣita, and descended into the royal palace; / At thirty years of age, he sat beneath the Bodhi tree and attained buddhahood.
For forty-nine years he remained in the world to teach and transform; / He preached the Dharma three hundred and fifty times,
And expounded eighty-four thousand gates.
