The Book of the Fours

Bhaddā Daughter of Kapila

thig4.1:1 Kassapa is the son and heir of the Buddha, whose mind is immersed in samādhi. He who knows the former peoples, sees heaven and places of loss,

thig4.1:2 and has attained liberation: is a sage of perfect insight. It’s because of these three knowledges that the brahmin is a master of the three knowledges.

thig4.1:3 In exactly the same way, Bhaddā daughter of Kapila is master of the three knowledges, <j>conqueror of death. She bears her body to the last, having vanquished Satan with his legions.

thig4.1:4 Seeing the danger of the world, both of us went forth. Now we are tamed, our defilements have ended; we’ve become cooled and quenched.
