3.4

At that time, the great king summoned the six non-Buddhist teachers to divine where the Tathāgata was. Then the six teachers spoke these words: "Great King! You should know that the śramaṇa Gautama is merely produced through the transformations of phantom arts. The nature of phantom illusions is entirely without reality. Great King! You should know that our scriptures, the four Vedas, say: 'Every thousand or two thousand years, a phantom person shall appear in the world.' The śramaṇa Gautama is precisely that person."
