佛告阿難。我宿命所行布施如是。太子須大拏者我身是也。時父王者今現我父閱頭檀是。爾時母者今現我母摩耶是也。是時妃者今瞿夷是。時山中道人阿州陀者今目揵連是。時天帝釋者今舍利弗是。時獵師者今阿難是。時男兒耶利者今現我子羅雲是。女兒罽延者今現羅漢朱利母是。時乞兒婆羅門者今調達是。時婆羅門婦者旃遮那摩是。勤苦如是。無央數劫。常行檀波羅蜜。布施如是。

The Buddha told Ānanda: 'The dāna I practiced in my past lives was like this. Prince Xudana (Sudāna) was myself. The father-king at that time was my present father, Śuddhodana. The mother at that time was my present mother, Māyā. The consort at that time was the present Gopī (Gopā). The recluse in the mountains, Azhutuo (Acyuta), was the present Maudgalyāyana. The Lord of Heaven Śakra at that time was the present Śāriputra. The hunter at that time was the present Ānanda. The boy Yeli (Jāli) was my present son, Rāhula. The girl Jiyan (Kṛṣṇājinā) was the present arhat mother of Cūḍa[panthaka]. The brāhmaṇa who begged for the children at that time was the present Devadatta. The brāhmaṇa's wife was Ciñcā-māṇavikā. With such toil and hardship across immeasurable kalpas, I constantly practiced the dānapāramitā. Such was my dāna.'
