(1) “Nagarjuno Bodhisatva was well practised in the art of compounding medicines; by taking a preparation (pill or cake) he nourished the years of life for many hundreds of years, so that neither the mind nor appearance decayed. Satváha-rája had partaken of this mysterious medicine.”—Beal’s Buddhist Records of the Western World, vol. II. p. 212.
