Verses of the Senior Nuns 3.3
The Book of the Threes
Another Uttamā
Of the seven awakening factors,
the path for attaining extinguishment,
I have developed them all,
just as the Buddha taught.
I attain the meditations on emptiness
and signlessness whenever I want.
I am the Buddha’s bosom daughter,
always delighting in extinguishment.
All sensual pleasures are cut off,
whether human or heavenly.
Transmigration through births is finished,
now there’ll be no more future lives.
