Requesting and prophecies are as in the text. The text conferring the prophecies has prose and verses. The prose has three parts: first, generally promising prophecies to the twelve hundred; second, individually conferring a prophecy upon Kauṇḍinya—Kauṇḍinya was the first to awaken to the Way and occupies the topmost seat as elder, so a prophecy is conferred upon him individually; third, individually conferring prophecies upon the five hundred—the five hundred have the same name, so prophecies must be conferred upon them individually. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 8.4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.8.4) - [Next: 8.6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.8.6) - [Up: 8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.8) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718~en-mt.8.5) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.8.5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1718.8.5) · Pramāṇa
