佛在忉利天歡喜園質多樹下。三月安居光照大千。光中千花皆有化佛。佛告文殊。今來禮敬母。聞乳流入如來口。便與文殊來至佛所。如來出梵音曰。身所經處與苦樂俱。當修涅槃永離苦樂。摩耶聞法得須陀洹果。三月將盡令鳩摩羅告閻浮提。如來將下欲入涅槃。帝釋作三道階。佛與母別下躡寶階。梵天執蓋四王侍衛。四部大眾導從滿空。諸王大集奉迎祇桓。

> The Buddha was in the Joyful Park of Trāyastriṃśa Heaven beneath the Citra tree. During the three-month rain retreat, his radiance illuminated the great chiliocosm. In the radiance, each of a thousand blossoms held a transformationally created buddha. The Buddha said to Mañjuśrī, "Now come to pay homage to mother." Hearing this, her breastmilk flowed into the Tathāgata's mouth, and she came with Mañjuśrī to the Buddha's place. The Tathāgata uttered a brahma-voice, saying, "Whatever places the body experiences are attended by suffering and pleasure; you should cultivate nirvāṇa to eternally transcend suffering and pleasure." Hearing the Dharma, Māyā attained the fruit of a srotāpanna. As the three months were coming to an end, he ordered Kumāra to announce to Jambudvīpa that the Tathāgata was about to descend and wished to enter nirvāṇa. Śakra created a flight of three steps; taking leave of his mother, the Buddha descended, stepping on the jeweled stairs. Brahmā held a parasol, the Four Heavenly Kings served as guards, and the fourfold assembly filled the sky as an escort. The kings gathered in great numbers to welcome him to Jetavana.
