Answer: According to the \*Buddhacarita-sūtra\*, which says: "After Puṣya Buddha, there were four great kalpas. In the first great kalpa, there was only Puṣya Buddha, who gave Śākyamuni the prophecy: 'In the future, after ninety-four kalpas, you will become a Buddha.' In the next great kalpa, there was only the Buddha Jianzhenli, who gave the prophecy, saying: 'In the future, after ninety-three kalpas, you will become a Buddha.' In the final great kalpa, Vipaśyin Buddha gave the prophecy, saying: 'In the future, after ninety-one kalpas, you will become a Buddha.' In the third great kalpa, no Buddha appeared at all, because no prophecy was given." By this, it is known that Puṣya Buddha was the last Buddha of the third asaṃkhyeya. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.44](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774.1.44) - [Next: 1.46](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774.1.46) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774~en-mt.1.45) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774.1.45](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774.1.45) · Pramāṇa
