4.36
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).
