2.88

又善見律云。輸頭檀那王禮佛已。白佛言。我今三度禮如來足。一佛初生時阿夷相曰。若在家者應作轉輪聖王。若出家學道必得成佛。是時地為震動。我見神力即為作禮。第二我出遊戲有耕田人。菩薩在閻浮樹下。日時已晡樹影停住不移。覆菩薩身。我見神力即為作禮。第三今迎佛至國。佛昇虛空作十八變。如伏外道神力無畏。即為作禮。

Furthermore, the Samantapāsādikā says: After King Śuddhodana paid homage to the Buddha, he said to the Buddha, 'I have now thrice paid homage to the Tathāgata's feet. First, when the Buddha was newly born, Asita examined his marks and said, "If he stays at home, he will become a wheel-turning sagely king; if he leaves home to study the Way, he will surely attain Buddhahood." At that time the earth shook; seeing this spiritual power, I immediately paid homage. Second, when I went out for recreation, there were people plowing the field; the Bodhisattva was beneath a jambu tree; the time was already afternoon, but the shadow of the tree stayed still without shifting, sheltering the Bodhisattva's body; seeing this spiritual power, I immediately paid homage. Third, now welcoming the Buddha to the kingdom, the Buddha ascended into the sky and performed eighteen transformations, fearless in spiritual power as he subdued non-Buddhists; I immediately paid homage.'
