二月七日惡魔退散之時。菩薩心淨湛然不動。落日停光澄月映徹眾星粲爛。天雨妙花作眾技樂。以用供養。菩薩既降魔已放大光明。即便入定思惟真諦。悉知過去所造善惡壽命短長。一切眾生輪回五道。無有真實。橫生苦樂。明星出時霍然大悟（即八日天曉也）得無上道為最正覺（因果經○此小機所見成道相）○佛成道日斛飯王（第一弟）遣使白淨飯王言。貴弟生男（第一弟白飯王）王心歡喜語來使云。今日大吉。是男當字為阿難（此云歡喜）舉國欣慶。又名慶喜（大論）○是歲耶輸夫人生子名羅睺羅（此云覆障以在閉為障也）時羅睺羅阿修羅食月。因以為名。初太子出家之日。指妃腹曰。却後六年汝當生男。至是在胎六年而生（瑞應經）。

> On the seventh day of the second month, when the evil demons retreated and dispersed, the Bodhisattva's mind was pure, serene, and unmoving. The setting sun held back its light, the clear moon shone brightly, and the myriad stars sparkled. Heaven rained exquisite flowers and performed various music as an offering. Having subdued Māra, the Bodhisattva emitted a great radiance and immediately entered samādhi, contemplating paramārtha-satya. He fully knew the good and evil deeds committed in the past, the lengths of life, and that all sentient beings transmigrate in the five destinies without anything real, enduring bitter and pleasant experiences in vain. When the morning star appeared, he experienced a sudden great awakening (that is, at dawn on the eighth day) and attained the unsurpassed Way, becoming the Supreme and Fully Enlightened One (Guo qu xian zai yin guo jing. This is the aspect of attaining the Way as seen by those of Hīnayāna capacities). On the day the Buddha attained the Way, King Droṇodana (the first younger brother) sent an envoy to report to King Śuddhodana: 'Your esteemed younger brother has given birth to a son' (the first younger brother, King Śuklodana). The king rejoiced in his heart and said to the envoy: 'Today is most auspicious. This boy shall be named Ānanda (translated here as 'rejoicing').' The entire country celebrated; he is also named Qingxi (Da zhidu lun). In this year, Lady Yaśodharā gave birth to a son named Rāhula (translated here as 'hindrance/veil', meaning hindered by being enclosed). At that time, the asura Rāhu devoured the moon, and he was named after this event. When the Crown Prince initially left home, he pointed to his consort's belly and said: 'After six years, you will give birth to a boy.' Now, having stayed in the womb for six years, he was born (Ruiying jing).
