“You should know that during the time of Buddha Vipaśyin, people lived for 80,000 years. During the time of Buddha Śikhin, people lived for 70,000 years. During the time of Buddha Viśvabhū, people lived for 60,000 years. During the time of Buddha Krakucchanda, people lived for 40,000 years. During the time of Buddha Kanakamuni, people lived for 30,000 years. During the time of Buddha Kāśyapa, people lived for 20,000 years. In the present time that I’ve arisen in the world, few people live more than a hundred years, and many live for less.”
