Whether one builds a large stupa or a small stupa for the Tathāgata or Mahābrahmā, because the one for whom it is made is the same, the merit is limitless. Furthermore, the Āgama states: There are four kinds of persons for whom stupas ought to be erected: first, Tathāgatas; second, pratyekabuddhas; third, śrāvakas; fourth, cakravartins. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 37.21](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.37.21) - [Next: 37.23](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.37.23) - [Up: 37](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.37) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122~en-mt.37.22) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.37.22](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.37.22) · Pramāṇa
