At that time, according to the constant rule of the Buddhas, the Bhagavat again emitted light from his uṣṇīṣa, reaching upward to countless billions of Buddha-lands. In a Buddha-land of the realm of space, the Buddha was named Ratna Tathāgata, Arhat, Samyaksaṃbuddha, Vidyācaraṇasaṃpanna, Sugata, Lokavid, Anuttarapuruṣadamyasārathi, Śāstādevamanuṣyāṇām, Buddha, Bhagavat. Seeing the light from Śākyamuni's uṣṇīṣa, he told the bodhisattvas gathered in that land: "Below there is a Buddha, Śākyamuni Tathāgata, Arhat, Samyaksaṃbuddha, Vidyācaraṇasaṃpanna, Sugata, Lokavid, Anuttarapuruṣadamyasārathi, Śāstādevamanuṣyāṇām, Buddha, Bhagavat. He is now in his mother's womb expounding the profound and essential unsurpassable Dharma treasury and drawing bodhisattvas of supernormal powers from the ten directions. You may go to pay homage, inquire after him, and in my name ask after Śākyamuni: 'Is your virtuous transformation advancing daily, and are your movements healthy and strong? Are the sentient beings of that land easy to transform?' When you go there, maintain proper deportment; the sentient beings of that land suffer many afflictions and injuries, and their arrogance blazes fiercely."
