Buddha Pronounces the Sūtra of Maitreya Bodhisattva’s Attainment of Buddhahood, Part 3 of 6

“All processes are impermanent, Which are the Dharma of birth and death. Having ended birth and death, Nirvana is delight!” After speaking these stanzas, Maitreya Bodhisattva will renounce family life to learn the Way to Buddhahood, and he will sit under the Bodhi tree of dragon flowers in the splendid Vajra bodimanda. Its branches will be like a jeweled dragon that spits out hundreds of jeweled flowers. Its petals will be in the colors of the seven treasures, and its fruits in various colors will be pleasing to sentient beings. No tree in heavens or the human world with compare with this tree.
