拘留孫佛(見在賢劫第一尊)偈曰。見身無實是佛身。了心如幻是佛幻。了得身心本性空。斯人與佛何殊別。長阿含經云。人壽四萬歲時此佛出世。種婆羅門。姓迦葉。父禮德。母善枝。居安和城。坐尸利沙樹下說法。一會度人四萬。神足二。一薩尼。二毘樓。侍者善覺。子上勝。

Krakucchanda Buddha (the first Honoured One of the present Fortunate Kalpa), his verse states:
“Seeing the body as unreal is the Buddha's body;
Comprehending the mind as illusory is the Buddha's illusion.
Once one realizes that body and mind are fundamentally empty in nature,
How is this person different from the Buddha?”
The Dīrghāgama Sūtra states: When the human lifespan was 40,000 years, this Buddha appeared in the world. His caste was brāhmaṇa, and his surname was Kāśyapa. His father was Yajñadatta, and his mother was Viśākhā. He resided in the city of Kṣemavatī. He sat beneath a śirīṣa tree to preach the Dharma. In one assembly, he liberated 40,000 people. He had two foremost disciples endowed with miraculous powers: the first was Sañjīva, and the second was Vidhura. His attendant was Buddhiji, and his son was Uttara.
