Because the merit and fortune of bearing the teacher of devas and humans were so great, she was reborn above in Trāyastriṃśa, naturally enjoying its entitlements. The Bodhisattva originally knew that a mother's virtue could not bear receiving his homage, and therefore, because she was about to end \[her life\], he was born from her." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.17](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.185.1.17) - [Next: 1.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.185.1.19) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.185.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.185~en-mt.1.18) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (3) - [法苑珠林](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.9.44) — 道世, Classical Chinese - [釋迦譜](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2040.1.84) — 僧祐, Classical Chinese - [修行本起經](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.sanskrit.avadana.nidana.caryanidanasutra*zh-zhudali.1.49) — Classical Chinese --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.185.1.18](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.185.1.18) · Pramāṇa
