misfortunes.
Beginning with the time of his aspiration (to become a Buddha) the
Tathāgata considered (his) ten perfections, ten higher perfections, & ten
ultimate perfections, ... (his) five great charities ... three conducts, & former
lives, (his) conception, birth, renunciation, meditation practice, sitting
cross-legged under the Bo tree (to get enlightened), (his) victory over Māra,
realization of omniscient knowledge, & the nine supermundane dhammas,
all these qualities of a Buddha. Then in Vesāli, at the third watch of the
night, after having established a compassionate mind, he made a protective
charm with regard to the three different ramparts,& likewise did the
Venerable Ānanda Thera:.
"Whatever deities there are in the 100 000 Koñis 44 of solar systems,
They receive this command: The threefold terror in the town Vesāli,
which has arisen from diseases, demons, & famine
may quickly disappear. This protective charm we speak."

Yaï kiñci vittaü idha vā huraü vā
Saggesu vā yaü ratanaü paõītaü
Na no samaü atthi tathāgatena.
Whatever wealth in this world or the next,
Whatever exquisite treasure in the heavens,
Is not, for us, equal to the Tathāgata.
