~The Three Predecessors of Sâkyamuni~
Fifty li to the west of the city brings the traveller to a town
named Too-wei, the birthplace of Kâsyapa Buddha. At the
place where he and his father met, and at that where he attained
to pari-nirvâna, topes were erected. Over the entire relic
of the whole body of him, the Kâsyapa Tathâgata, a great tope
was also erected.
Going on southeast from the city of Srâvasti for twelve yojanas,
the travellers came to a town named Na-pei-keâ, the birthplace
of Krakuchanda Buddha. At the place where he and his father met,
and at that where he attained to pari-nirvâna, topes were erected.
Going north from here less than a yojana, they came to a town
which had been the birthplace of Kanakamuni Buddha. At the place
where he and his father met, and where he attained to pari-nirvâna,
topes were erected.
