6.69

'In the chiliocosm,
The Buddha is exceptionally honored;
Next is Kāśyapa,
Who can close the gates of sin.
Formerly in Jambudvīpa,
Before the cave in the dunghill,
For the sake of that poor mother,
He expounded true words.
Then the mother rejoiced,
And presented rice-water;
An offering like a mustard seed,
Yielded retribution like a mountain.
Bringing about my own birth as a heavenly maiden,
Receiving natural endowments;
Therefore I have descended,
To take refuge in the field of merit.'
