Though later legends represent the Sakyas as having been destroyed during Buddha's life-time, this is not, as far as I know, supported by any proof contained in the sacred Pâli texts. Moreover the history of Buddha's relics ("Mahâparin," S. p. 68) clearly states that the Sakya dynasty survived Buddha. - [Previous: c8.96](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.religion.oldenberg-1882.c8.96) - [Next: c8.98](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.religion.oldenberg-1882.c8.98) - [Up: c8](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.religion.oldenberg-1882.c8) ## Cites (1) - [Mahāparinibbānasutta](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.theravada.sp.digha.16) — Pāli --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.religion.oldenberg-1882.c8.97](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.religion.oldenberg-1882.c8.97) · Pramāṇa
