"At that time, Rāhula, sustaining the Buddha's spiritual power, entered the samādhi of wish-fulfillment. After paying homage and circumambulating the Buddha seven times, he transformed his own body into a wheel-turning sage king (cakravartin). Ānanda attended on the left and Nanda on the right, while the one thousand two hundred and fifty monks transformed into a thousand sons. Ānanda served as the minister of the treasury, and Nanda served as the minister of weapons; the seven treasures and the fourfold army were all complete. Then the golden wheel treasure, riding upon a lotus terrace in the empty sky, proceeded straight to the house of the great elder Sudatta. A yakṣa proclaimed: 'The sage king has appeared in the world to banish all wicked people and propagate the good Dharma.' When the old woman heard this, her heart was filled with great joy: 'When a sage king appears, he possesses a wish-fulfilling jewel (cintāmaṇi) and seeks nothing; one may surely speak to this one.'
