1.12

At that time, King Prasenajit of the state of Śrāvastī thought: "Now that the Buddha manifests such a rare sign, he will certainly rain down the Dharma rain, universally benefiting and gladdening all." He then asked the upāsakas Ratnachattra, Vimalakīrti, and others, the great śrāvakas Śāriputra, Subhūti, and others, and the bodhisattva mahāsattvas Maitreya, Siṃhanāda, and others, saying: "What auspicious sign is this manifested by the Tathāgata?" At that time, no one in the great assembly was able to answer. King Prasenajit and the others, relying on the Buddha's spiritual power, broadly performed music, and the devas of the desire and form realms each played immeasurable heavenly music, its sound resounding throughout the trichiliocosm.
