1.18

「毘婆尸佛,出剎利種,姓拘利若;尸棄佛、毘舍婆佛,種、姓亦爾。拘樓孫佛,出婆羅門種,姓迦葉;拘那含佛、迦葉佛,種、姓亦爾。我今如來、至真,出剎利種,姓名曰瞿曇。」佛時頌曰:

“Buddha Vipaśyin arose from a warrior clan, and his surname was Kauṇḍinya. Buddha Śikhin and Buddha Viśvabhū had the same type of clan and surname. Buddha Krakucchanda arose from a priestly clan, and his surname was Kāśyapa. Buddha Kanakamuni and Buddha Kāśyapa had the same type of clan and surname. Now, I’m a Tathāgata, an Arhat, who arose from a warrior clan, and my surname is Gautama.”
