Furthermore, the *Amitābha Buddha Sūtra* says: 'The Buddha told the assembly of bhikṣus: "This prince of King Ajātaśatru and the five hundred sons of elders will, after countless kalpas, all become buddhas, just like Amitābha Buddha." The Buddha said: "Ever since this prince of King Ajātaśatru and the five hundred sons of elders took their stand on the bodhisattva path for immeasurable kalpas, they have each made offerings to forty billion buddhas; now they have come again to make offerings to me. The prince of King Ajātaśatru, the five hundred sons of elders, and the rest were all disciples of mine in a previous life at the time of Kāśyapa Buddha; now they have all gathered again and met together."'
