大唐西域記 6.23

6.23

大城西北六十餘里，有故城，是賢劫中人壽二萬歲時，迦葉波佛本生城也。城南有窣堵波，成正覺已初見父處。城北有窣堵波，有迦葉波佛全身舍利。並無憂王所建也。

Formerly there was in this country a band of 500 robbers, who roamed about through the towns and villages and pillaged the border of the country. Prasenajita-raja having seized them all, caused their eyes to be put out and abandoned them in the midst of a dark forest. The robbers, racked with pain, sought compassion as they invoked Buddha. At this time Tathagata was in the vihara of the Jetavana, and hearing their piteous cries (i.e., by his spiritual power), he was moved to compassion, and caused a soft wind to blow gently from the Snowy Mountains, and bring with it some medicinal (leaves?) which filled up the cavity of their eye-sockets. They immediately recovered their sight, and lo ! the Lord of the World was standing before them. Arriving at the heart of wisdom, they rejoiced and worshipped. Fixing their walking-staves in the ground, they departed. This was how they took root and grew. To the north-west of the capital 16 li or so, there is an old town. In the Bhadra-kalpa when men lived to 20,000 years, this was the town in which Kasyapa Buddha was born. To the south of the town there is a stupa. This is the place where he first met his father after arriving at enlightenment. To the north of the town is a stupa, which contains relics of the entire body of Kasyapa Buddha. Both these were built by Asoka-raja. From this point going south-east 500 li or so, we come to the country of Kie-pi-lo-fa-sse-ti (Kapilavastu).
