This comes from the Sutra of the Great Brahmā King Asking the Buddha to Resolve Doubts, which says: The Buddha was on Mount Gṛdhrakūṭa. The Great Brahmā Heavenly King took a golden pāra flower and offered it to the Buddha. The World-Honoured One held up the flower and showed it to the assembly. The millions of humans and devas were all at a loss. Only Kāśyapa broke into a subtle smile. The World-Honoured One said, "I possess the treasury of the true Dharma eye, the wondrous mind of nirvāṇa, and I entrust it to Kāśyapa."
