Kaṅkhārevatattheragāthā  Revata the Doubter

“Paññaṁ imaṁ passa tathāgatānaṁ,  See this wisdom of the Realized Ones!
Aggi yathā pajjalito nisīthe;  Like a fire blazing in the night,
Ālokadā cakkhudadā bhavanti,  giving light, giving vision,
Ye āgatānaṁ vinayanti kaṅkhan”ti.  they dispel the doubt of those who’ve come.

Itthaṁ sudaṁ āyasmā kaṅkhārevato thero gāthaṁ abhāsitthāti.  That is how this verse was recited by the senior venerable Revata the Doubter.
