此中：（1）尊者薄拘罗幼年时，于某一吉日，在河中替他沐浴，由于乳母的不慎，使他落在河流中。一条鱼把他吞下去了。此鱼游到波罗奈城附近的渡头，为渔人所捕，并且卖给一长者的妻子。那妇人对此鱼起爱好心，说道：「我自己来煮」。当她剖开鱼时，忽见一幼儿在鱼腹中俨如金像，生大欢喜道：「我得一子」！这位受最后有者的尊者薄拘罗，在鱼腹中能得无恙，因为他自身当得生起阿罗汉道智的力量之故，为「智遍满神变」。其故事（此处略说）自当详论。
Ñ(XII,27): Herein, when the venerable Bākkula as an infant was being bathed in the river on an auspicious day", he fell into the stream through the negligence of his nurse. A fish swallowed him and eventually came to the bathing place at Benares. There it was caught by a fisherman and sold to a rich man's wife. The fish interested her, and thinking to cook it herself, she slit it open. When she did so, she saw the child like a golden image in the fish's stomach. She was overjoyed, thinking 'At last I have got a son'. So the venerable Bākkula's safe survival in a fish's stomach in his last existence is called 'success by intervention of knowledge' because it was brought about by the influence of the Arahant-path knowledge due to be obtained by [him in] that life. But the story should be told in detail (see MA.iv,190).
