太子瑞應本起經 1.16

1.16

「王夫人懼，拜手而問：『有不祥乎？願告其意。』舉手答曰：『吉無不利！敢賀大王，得生此神人。昨暮天地大動者，其正為此矣。我相法曰：「王者生子，而有三十二大人相者，處國當為轉輪聖王，主四天下，七寶自至，行即能飛，兵仗不用，自然太平。若不樂天下，而棄家為道者，當為自然佛，度脫萬姓。」傷我年已晚暮，當就後世，不覩佛興，不聞其經，故自悲耳。』

"The king and lady were afraid, and bowing with joined hands, asked: 'Is there an ill omen? Please explain your meaning.' He raised his hand and answered, saying: 'It is auspicious and entirely without disadvantage! I venture to congratulate the Great King on obtaining the birth of this divine man. The great shaking of heaven and earth yesterday evening was precisely because of this. My physiognomical method says: "When a monarch begets a son who possesses the thirty-two marks of a great man, if he remains in the realm, he will be a cakravartin ruling over the four quarters of the world, to whom the seven treasures come of themselves; whenever he journeys, he can fly; arms and weapons are not employed, and peace prevails naturally. If he finds no joy in the world, and abandons his household to pursue the Way, he will become a spontaneous Buddha who delivers the myriad folk." I lament that my years are already late and declining, and that I must soon enter the next life, unable to witness the emergence of the Buddha or hear his sūtras; therefore I grieve for myself.'"
