「如來使者」者,如有女人,先來懷孕,佛記是男。後未生位,母便命終,外道譏訶佛記無驗。焚燒母日,佛令使者入火取兒,母雖喪亡,其兒不死。使者入火,抱兒將還,由佛力持,火不燒使。佛但記兒,不記母故。
Regarding "the Tathāgata's messenger": For instance, there was a woman who became pregnant, and the Buddha predicted it would be a boy. Later, before the child was born, the mother died, and non-Buddhists mocked and criticized the Buddha's prediction as having no proof. On the day the mother was cremated, the Buddha ordered a messenger to enter the fire and retrieve the child; although the mother had died, her child was not dead. The messenger entered the fire and carried the child back; through the Buddha's sustaining power, the fire did not burn the messenger. This was because the Buddha had only predicted the child, not the mother.
