When one thousand four hundred years have passed, you must take my stupa of the ten nails and tour the four continents, staying in each kingdom for seven days. Having made the complete circuit in this manner, you must go to the island of golden sands in Lake Anavatapta on the summit of Mount Gandhamādana, where you shall remain until one thousand five hundred years. In this trichiliocosm of eighty billion kingdoms, my teaching will first begin to circulate there. You, Mañjuśrī, will emanate forms to become a king; Vajragarbha Bodhisattva will emanate forms to become a great minister; Vajradhvaja Bodhisattva will emanate forms to become a bhikṣu. You three great beings shall jointly circulate my teaching; may you be fortunate enough never to give rise to weariness or indolence." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 38.89](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.38.89) - [Next: 38.91](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.38.91) - [Up: 38](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.38) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122~en-mt.38.90) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.38.90](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.38.90) · Pramāṇa
