[PREFACE.]

[We have been fortunate enough to have preserved to the present day the valuable chroniclessuch as Mahawansa and Rajaratnakara recording the various customs, manners, laws, principal works and achivements of our kings and subjects Of the chronicles relating to this Island it is the opinion of scholars that the Dipawansa holds the most original place in antiquity.]

[Mahawansa, both in brief and in detail, records events of the life of Buddha and the accounts of our Island from primitive times, and similarly the Dipawansa chronicles matters relating to the arrival of Buddha in this Island and other religious events of historic importance, and also the succession of royalty in this Island.]

[Lord Buddha, who arrived this Island in the ninth month of his attainment of Buddhahood, preached to the yakkhas and Rakshas that dwelt in the area where now stands the Mahiyangana Chaitya and snbdued them. Subsequently He founded an abode for them in Giri Diwayina and thus protected the Island. In the 5th year of his attainment of Buddhahood due to a difference between the snake kings Chulodera and Mahodara, over a gemmed throne, which nearly terminated in warfare and bloodshed, Hemade his reappearance in Lanka, and, having performed many miracles from above, struck terror into their hearts and pacified both parties. This throne was subsequently offered by them to the Holy one, who occupied it and expounded the Dharma to them with a view to promoting their unity, and left for Jetha Vanarama.]

[Thus writes Vedeha Thera with reference to this incident, "Sarwaggna,] [The Omniscient One], [having descended from the heavens, was seated on the throne like the sun in the zenith of his splendour. Thereupon the multitude of snakes, having mustered round him and served him with ambrosial food and drinks, hearkened to His teachings. He having imparted the Sila] [morals] [and Sarana] [refuge] [to the innumerable Nagas living on land and water, who had assembled to engage in conflict, caused them to bestow many offerings in the name of The Holy One.]

[After the 8 th year of His attainment of Buddhahood, upon the invitation of Maniakhkika, the Naga KIng, He made his third appearance in Lanka at the spot where now stands the Kelani Chaitya on Wesak day, and, seated on a throne bedecked with jewels of various hues, expounded the Dharma to the countless Nagas assembled there.]

[Thereupon at the invitation of God Sumana of Samankula] [Adam's Peak] [He proceeded there and left His left foot print on the Peak and rested a while in Divaguha, a cave forming a part of this rock.]

[Thence he arrived at Anuradhapura and engaged himself in deep meditation at the nine sacred places and thus made them sacred by his short sojourn. Subsequently He made His way to Jumbudipa.]

[The Dipawansa thus affords ample testimony to the truth or the popular belief that Lord Buddha visited this Island. It may not be out of place here to give a short account of the mighty kings who reigned in Dambadiva] [India] [during this Kalpaya] [a period of 432 million years measuring the duration of the world.]

[In Jambuddwipa at the very commencement of this Kalpa there reigned a mighty king called Maha Sammata who had gained this name since he was elected by the unanimous vote of the people. This Maha Sammata dynasty was later on maintained by his illustrious successors Roja, Wararoja and others.]

[In the city of Kapilawattu, which was named after the Rhisi Kapila who dewelt there, reigned Jayasena and many other kings. Prince Siddartha, the noble prince, who after his renunciation and attainment of Buddhahood ultimately attained Nirvana, was the son of Suddhodana, the lineal descendant of the Dynasty of Maha Sammata.]

[Having performed everything necessary for the salvation of mankind He departed this life in the grove of the Mallawa Princes at Kusinara. Thereupon with the assistance of king Ajasat a convocation of 500 Arahat priests headed by Maha Kasyapa was held. One hundred years later followed a second convocation of 700 Arahat priests headed by Yasasthawira under the patronage of that great king, Kalasoka, to suppress the heretical doctrines which were being promulgated by the heretics at the time.]

[In the 235th year after Lord Buddha attained Nirvana that illustrious Emperor, Dharmasoka, succeeded to the throne at Jambuddwipa. His piety and devotion to Buddha Sasana was such that he entered his son, Prince Mahinda,to the Order of Priesthood under the guardianship of Moggali Putta Tissa Isthawira.]

[The power of the heretics having now become increased, Moggalli Puttha Tissa Isthwira, Who foresaw that the teachings of Buddha would spread far and wide and Buddhisn would be permanently established in foreign countries in time to come, held for the third time a convocation of 1000 Arahat priests headed by him under the patronage of the great Emperor, Dharmasoka. As a result of this missionaries were sent to different countries to propagate Buddhism. Of these missionary priests Arahat Mahinda accompanied by Ittiya. Uttiya, Sambala, Bhaddasala and the ascetic, Bhanduka, came over to Ceylon during the region of Dewanampiyatissa. This great monarch having been greatly enlightened by the teachings of Arahat Mahinda soon embraced Buddhism. His example was followed by thousands of his subjects who embraced this religion within a short time and began to practise its manifold virtues.]

[It is a matter for genuine regret and dissappointment that this valuable chronicle does not afford us any clue to fix the exact date of its compilation and authorship with any degree of certainty. Nevertheless a careful consideration of the facts chronicled herein, such as the visits of Lord Buddha, the establishment of Buddhism and other events relating to the reigns of various kings who ruled over this Island, and also of the free allusions made to the stanzas contained in this chronicle in Samantapasadika, the great commentary on Vinaya] [discipline] [compiled by that famous commentator on Thripitaka, Buddhagosa, who landed in Ceylon in the year 954 B.C. During the region of king Mahanama, leads us to conclude that the probable time of the compilation of Dipawansa is somewhere in the 4th or 5th century.]

[Thus says Buddhagosa in Samanthapasadika-]
