4.17

The Dīrghāgama says: At that time, the World-Honoured One then prophesied the fruits of the Path to be attained by his one thousand two hundred disciples. The World-Honoured One opened his uttarāsaṅga, extended his golden arm, and addressed the monks: 'You must observe that a Tathāgata appears in the world only occasionally, like the udumbara flower which appears but once in a great while.'
