In the fourth year, five hundred years after the Buddha's parinirvāṇa, Asaṅga appeared in India to propagate the teaching. His younger brother Vasubandhu initially composed five hundred treatises of the Hīnayāna; later, through Asaṅga's awakening of him, he additionally composed five hundred treatises of the Mahāyāna. The world called him the 'Master of a Thousand Treatises'.
