105. The constellations are all aglow, and the lunar mansions in the vault of heaven, Visākhā is in conjunction with the moon,--verily thou shalt be Buddha. 106. Those creatures that dwell in holes and caves depart each from his lair, This day these lairs are forsaken,--verily thou shalt be Buddha. 107. There is no discontent among mortals, but they are filled with contentment, This day all are content,--verily thou shalt be Buddha. 108. Then diseases are dispelled and hunger ceases, This day these things are seen,--verily thou shalt be Buddha. 109. Then Desire wastes away, Hate and Folly perish, This day all these are dispelled,--verily thou shalt be Buddha. 110. No danger then comes near; this day this thing is seen, By this sign we know it,--verily thou shalt become Buddha. 111. No dust flies abroad; this day this thing is seen, By this sign we know it,--verily thou shalt be Buddha. 112. All noisome odours flee away, celestial fragrance breathes around, Such fragrance breathes this day,--verily thou shalt be Buddha. 113. All the angels are manifested, the Formless only excepted, This day they all are seen,--verily thou shalt be Buddha. 114. All the hells become visible, These all are seen this day,--verily thou shalt be Buddha. 115. Then walls, and doors, and rocks are no impediment, This day they have melted into air,[135]--verily thou shalt be Buddha. 116. At that moment death and birth do not take place, This day these things are seen,--verily thou shalt be Buddha. 117. Do thou make a strenuous effort, hold not back, go forward, This thing we know,--verily thou shalt be Buddha. And the Bodhisatta, having heard the words of Dīpankara Buddha, and of the angels in ten thousand worlds, filled with immeasurable resolution, thought thus within himself, “The Buddhas are beings whose word cannot fail; there is no deviation from truth in their speech. For as the fall of a clod thrown into the air, as the death of a mortal, as the sunrise at dawn, as a lion’s roaring when he leaves his lair, as the delivery of a woman with child, as these things are sure and certain,--even so the word of the Buddhas is sure and cannot fail, verily I shall become a Buddha.” Therefore it is said, 118. Having heard the words of Buddha and of the angels of ten thousand worlds, Glad, joyous, delighted, I then thought thus within myself: 119. The Buddhas speak not doubtful words, the Conquerors speak not vain words, There is no falsehood in the Buddhas,--verily I shall become a Buddha. 120. As a clod cast into the air doth surely fall to the ground, So the word of the glorious Buddhas is sure and everlasting.
