太子瑞應本起經 2.28

2.28

「迦葉五百弟子，人事三火，合千五百火，明旦燃之，火了不燃，怪而白師。師言：『疑是大沙門所為也。』即行問佛：『我五百弟子，凡事千五百火，今旦燃之，火皆不燃。是大道人之所為乎？』佛言：『卿欲使火燃不？』問之至三。曰：『欲使燃。』佛言：『可去，火當燃。』應聲皆燃。迦葉復念：『是大沙門，神則神矣，然未得道，不如我已得羅漢也！』

"Kāśyapa's five hundred disciples each tended three fires, making fifteen hundred fires in all. The next morning, when they went to kindle them, the fires would not light at all. Bewildered, they reported this to their master. Their master said: 'I suspect this was done by that great śramaṇa.' He immediately went and asked the Buddha: 'My five hundred disciples tend fifteen hundred fires in all, yet when they kindled them this morning, none of the fires would light. Was this done by the Great Man of the Way?' The Buddha said: 'Do you wish for the fires to burn, or not?' He asked him this three times. [Kāśyapa] replied: 'I wish for them to burn.' The Buddha said: 'You may go; the fires will burn.' At his words, they all burst into flame. Kāśyapa thought again: 'This great śramaṇa is certainly spiritual, yet he has not attained the Way, and is not equal to me, who have already attained the status of an arhat!'
