大唐西域記 3.14

3.14

瞢揭釐城西南行六七十里，大河東有窣堵波，高六十餘尺，上軍王之所建也。昔如來之將寂滅，告諸大眾：「我涅槃後，烏仗那國上軍王宜與舍利之分。」及諸王將欲均量，上軍王後來，遂有輕鄙之議。是時天人大眾重宣如來顧命之言，乃預同分，持歸本國，式遵崇建。窣堵波側大河濱，有大石，狀如象。昔上軍王以大白象負舍利歸，至於此地，象忽蹎仆，因而自斃，遂變為石，即於其側起窣堵波。

To the south-west of the town of Mungali 60 or 70 li there is a great river, on the east of which is a stupa 60 feet or so in height; it was built by Shang-kiun (Uttarasena). Formerly when Tathagata was about to die, he addressed the great congregation and said: "After my Nirvana, Uttarasena-raja, of the country Udyana (U-chang-na), will obtain a share of the relics of my body. When the kings were about to divide the relics equally, Uttarasena-raja arrived after (the others); coming from a frontier country, he was treated with little regard by the others. At this time the Devas published afresh the words of Tathagata as he was about to die. Then obtaining a portion of relics, the king came back to his country, and, to show his great respect, erected this stupa. By the side of it, on the bank of the great river, there is a large rock shaped like an elephant. Formerly Uttarasena-raja brought back to his own land the relics of Buddha on a great white elephant. Arrived at this spot, the elephant suddenly fell down and died, and was changed immediately into stone. By the side of this the stupa is built.
