The content tells the power of Metteyya Sutta. Once, the Buddha spoke to Venerable Sariputta that aftef 5000 years of his Teachings, the people will become more jearous. They will kill each other. That time is called kaliyuka (chaos) or dark age. By the power of this Metteyyasut, whoever listened to it, written it by himself, or hired someone else to write it for him, memorised it, taught it to others, worshiped and respected it, will be free from all sufferings and dangers. Colophon: Folio 26 on the recto side: Chunlasangkat (CS) 1293, a huang mot year, on the fourth day of the waxing moon of the seventh lunar month, the fourth day of the week (Wednesday), the writing was accomplished at the time of kòng ngai (between 7.30–9.00 o’clock). Rattanapannya sponsored the making of this manuscript entitled Lam Mettaiyasut (Metteyya Sutta) to support the Teachings of the Buddha to last until the end of 5000 years. May the results of this merit be a condition for Nirvana and cut the five obstructions off and reach Nirvana as my wishes. Arahantī homi nibbāna paccayo honto no niccaṃ dhuvaṃ (May I obtain Arahantship. May this be a condition for us to reach Nirvana, constantly and certainly).
