### [2.403](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1721.2.403)

「時有菩薩名曰德藏」，第二、明授記。大眾既聞涅槃咸生戀慕，今欲止彼哀情，故次明授記，前佛雖謝、後佛續興，不須哀也。

> From "At that time there was a bodhisattva named Guṇagupta (Virtue Treasury)" is the second: clarifying the conferment of prophecy. Since the great assembly had heard of the nirvāṇa, they all gave rise to yearning and sorrow. Now, wishing to quell their sorrowful feelings, he next clarified the conferment of prophecy: although the former Buddha departs, the subsequent Buddha continues to arise, so there is no need for sorrow.
