49.28

The Buddha told Ānanda: 'Shanzi in that past life was myself. The blind father was my present father, King Śuddhodana. The blind mother was Lady Māyā. The king of Jiayi was Ānanda. The Śakra, Lord of the Devas, of that time was Maitreya. That I was caused to swiftly attain the unsurpassed, true and correct Way was entirely due to filial virtue.'
