On Yuan Chwang's Travels in India, 629–645 A.D. v2.c20.104

v2.c20.104

¹ This account is taken chiefly from the Fo-shuo-shu-t‘i-ka-ching (No. 543), with which the Ta-pan-nie-p‘an-ching, *ch*. 28 (No. 114) is in general agreement. The Wu-pai-ti-tzŭ-shuo-pên-ch‘i-ching (No. 729) has no mention of a miraculous birth, and the disciple relates his karma. The whole story is told at great length in the Jyotishkāvadāna of the Divyāv. (XIX). See also Rockhill's ‘Life’ p. 65 and 94; Bud. Text S. Vol. II, Pt. II, p. 12 and B. Texts Appx. p. 43.
