釋迦譜 1.409

1.409

爾時有一仙人善知相法。語眾人言。今此仁者諸相具足。必當得於一切種智為天人師。即便俱往詣太子所而作是言。所修道異不敢相留。若欲去者可向北行。彼有大仙名阿羅邏迦蘭。仁者可往就其語論。我觀仁者。亦當不必住於彼處。於是太子即便北行。諸仙人眾見太子去。心懷懊惱合掌隨送。極望絕視然後乃還。

At that time there was a ṛṣi who was skilled in physiognomy. He spoke to the multitude, saying, “Now this benevolent one is fully endowed with all the primary marks; he will surely attain sarvākārajñatā and become a teacher of devas and humans.” Together they all went to the prince and said, “The way of practice is different, so we dare not detain you. If you wish to depart, you may head north. There is a great ṛṣi there named Ārāḍa Kālāma; you, benevolent one, may go and discourse with him. Yet as I observe you, benevolent one, you will also not necessarily remain in that place.” Thereupon the prince headed north. Seeing the prince depart, the multitude of ṛṣis felt grief; with palms joined, they escorted him, gazing as far as their sight could reach until he was lost to view, and only then did they return.
