Note 209 — THE NIDĀNAKATHĀ OR THE THREE EPOCHS. (continued 2)

Robert Cæsar Childers translation

Yamaka-pāṭihāriyaŋ; literally ‘twin-miracle.’ Comp. pp. 88, 193, of the text, and Mah. p. 107. I am not sure of the meaning of the expression. Bigandet, p. 93, has ‘performed a thousand wonders.’ Hardy, p. 181, omits the clause; and Beal omits the whole episode. A gloss here adds that the Buddha performed a similar miracle on three other occasions.

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
