復謂商那和修曰。汝善行化。而護持正法無令斷絕。謂末田底迦曰。昔佛記云。滅度五百歲中。當汝於罽賓國敷宣大法。後宜往之。以興教化。已而尊者超身虛空作一十八變。入風輪奮迅三昧。乃分身四分。一惠忉利天。一惠娑竭羅龍宮。一惠阿闍世王。一惠毘舍離王。得者各建寶塔而供養之。是時當此周夷王之世也。
He further addressed Śāṇavāsa, saying, 'Skillfully carry out conversion, protect and uphold the True Dharma, and do not let it be severed.' He addressed Madhyāntika, saying, 'The Buddha's past prophecy states that in the five hundred years after his extinction, you should broadly proclaim the Great Dharma in the country of Jibin; later you should go there to establish the teaching and conversion.' Soon afterwards, the Venerable One leaped into empty space and performed the eighteen transformations. Entering the wind-wheel swift samādhi, he divided his body into four portions: one was given to Trāyastriṃśa Heaven, one to the palace of the Sāgara dragon king, one to King Ajātaśatru, and one to the King of Vaiśālī. Those who received them each erected a precious stupa to make offerings to them. This corresponded to the time of King Yi of Zhou.
