एवम् एतं यथाभूतं शास्तुपूगं विजानथ ।
क्वचित् क्वचित् च संबुद्धो बुद्धक्षेत्रेषु दृश्यते ॥ ४१ ॥
evam etaṃ yathābhūtaṃ śāstupūgaṃ vijānatha |
kvacit kvacit ca saṃbuddho buddhakṣetreṣu dṛśyate || 41 ||
Know then that this is the truth concerning the total number of the Masters, and concerning the fields in which a Buddha now and then appears. (41)
