### [9.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2121.9.22)

釋迦牟尼佛為菩薩時。名大薩他婆。當渡大海惡風壞船。語眾賈人捉我頭髮手足當渡汝等。人人捉已以刀自殺。大海水法不停死屍。即時疾風吹至岸邊（出大智論第四卷）。

> When Śākyamuni Buddha was a bodhisattva, he was named the Great Sārthavāha. When he was crossing the great ocean, a fierce wind destroyed the ship. He said to the merchants: "Grasp my hair, hands, and feet, and I will ferry you across." After each person had held on, he killed himself with a knife. By the law of the waters of the great ocean, it does not retain dead bodies. Immediately, a swift wind blew \[the corpse\] to the shore. (Extracted from the fourth fascicle of the Great Prajñāpāramitā Commentary.)
