First, it identifies the wheel-turning king: he was the Buddha Ratnāgni. Next, it identifies the thousand sons: they are the thousand buddhas in the Auspicious Kalpa. Four have already become buddhas; the rest are in the future. As for the four buddhas, they are: first, Krakucchanda; second, Kanakamuni; third, Kāśyapa; fourth, Śākyamuni. "Auspicious Kalpa" means a good kalpa. When the kalpa was first forming, the Śuddhāvāsa gods saw inside the water a thousand jeweled lotuses, and thus knew that one thousand buddhas would appear; therefore, it is called the Auspicious Kalpa. The Buddha Ruci: here translated as "Tearful Weeping"; he appears later in the Daśabhūmika Sūtra. As for Candracchatra, he was the Buddha Śākyamuni. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 6.73](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2772.6.73) - [Next: 6.75](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2772.6.75) - [Up: 6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2772.6) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2772~en-mt.6.74) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2772.6.74](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2772.6.74) · Pramāṇa
