8.255

有人言:佛顏有舒斂,故知受不受。有人言:身光上下表之,故有受不受。有人言:初成道時佛有唱號默然者便是受請,涅槃時默然者便不受請。

Some say: the Buddha's countenance has relaxation and tension, and thus one knows whether he accepts or does not accept. Some say: the upward or downward movement of the bodily light indicates it, and thus there is acceptance or non-acceptance. Some say: when he first attained the Way, if the Buddha had someone announce his title and was silent, that was accepting the request; at the time of nirvāṇa, being silent was not accepting the request.
