釋迦譜 1.17

1.17

The *Loutan jing* says: "Afterward, they gradually developed attachments; they gave maidens to husbands with singing, dancing, and laughter, making vows to become husband and wife so that they might dwell in peace. At that time, they first built the city of Campā, and so on up to all cities and towns. Naturally occurring non-glutinous rice was harvested in the morning and ripened by evening, and was harvested in the evening and ripened by morning; upon being cut, it grew back immediately (the *Madhyamāgama* says it was four inches long), having as yet no stalks. At that time, there was a being who gathered a day's provisions all at once, and taught others to do so, up to gathering five days' provisions. Non-glutinous rice gradually developed husks and chaff, and having been cut, it no longer grew back, leaving dry stumps."
