8.13

If we rely on the Sutra of the Names of the Buddhas: Ninety-one kalpas ago, there was a Buddha named Vipaśyin Tathāgata. Thirty kalpas ago, there was a Buddha who appeared in the world named Śikhin Tathāgata. In this very same kalpa, another Buddha appeared in the world named Viśvabhū Tathāgata. Question: Are these ninety-one kalpas great or minor? Answer: They are mahākalpas.
