4.36

二月二十九日。如來荼毘已經七日。帝釋開棺取佛右牙。天上起塔。有二捷疾羅剎。盜取佛牙一雙。時城內大眾收取舍利滿八金壜。入拘尸城七日供養(後分○舍利此云骨身)。

On the twenty-ninth day of the second month, seven days had already passed since the Tathāgata's cremation. Śakra opened the coffin, took the Buddha's right tooth, and erected a stūpa in heaven. Two swift rākṣasas stole a pair of the Buddha's teeth. At that time, the assembly within the city collected enough relics to fill eight golden jars and took them into the city of Kuśīnagara to make offerings for seven days (Later Portion; Note: 'Śarīra' here means bone-body).
