Record of Buddhistic Kingdoms

CHAPTER XXVII
5/11

On the four sides are niches, with a Buddha seated in each, and a Bodhisattva standing in attendance on him.

There may be twenty cars, all grand and imposing, but each one different from the others.

On the day mentioned, the monks and laity within the borders all come together; they have singers and skilful musicians; they pay their devotion with flowers and incense.

The Brahmans come and invite the Buddhas to enter the city.

These do so in order, and remain two nights in it.
