Wonderful things of the Thus Gone One

Tathāgat­acchariya 1 [Tathāgata­acchariya 1] (AN 4.127)

Bhikkhus, at the arising of the Thus Gone One, worthy and rightfully enlightened, four wonderful and surprising things arise. What four?

Bhikkhus, when the future enlightened one leaves the heaven of Happiness to enter the mother's womb a great light appears in this world of gods and men, Māra, Brahma, recluses and Brahmins. That light surpasses the splendour of gods. The pitch darkness in the outer spaces of the worlds, where even the moon and sun so powerful do not penetrate, get lighted up and beings born there, see light, see each other and know, there are other beings born there. At the arising of the Thus Gone One, worthy and rightfully enlightened, this is the first wonderful and surprising thing that arises.

Again, bhikkhus, when the future enlightened one enters the mother's womb mindfull and aware a great light appears in this world of gods and men, Māra, Brahma, recluses and Brahmins. That light surpasses the splendour of gods. The pitch darkness in the outer spaces of the worlds, where even the moon and sun so powerful do not penetrate, get lighted up and beings born there, see light, see each other and know, there are other beings born there. At the arising of the Thus Gone One, worthy and rightfully enlightened, this is the second wonderful and surprising thing that arises.

Again, bhikkhus, when the Thus Gone One realizes incomparable rightful enlightenment a great light appears in this world of gods and men, Māra, Brahma, recluses and Brahmins. That light surpasses the splendour of gods. The pitch darkness in the outer spaces of the worlds, where even the moon and sun so powerful do not penetrate, get lighted up and beings born there, see light, see each other and know, there are other beings born there. At the arising of the Thus Gone One, worthy and rightfully enlightened, this is the third wonderful and surprising thing that arises.

Again, bhikkhus, when the Thus Gone One rolls the wheel of the Teaching a great light appears in this world of gods and men, Māra, Brahma, recluses and Brahmins. That light surpasses the splendour of gods. The pitch darkness in the outer spaces of the worlds, where even the moon and sun so powerful do not penetrate, get lighted up and beings born there, see light, see each other and know, there are other beings born there. At the arising of the Thus Gone One, worthy and rightfully enlightened, this is the fourth wonderful and surprising thing that arises.

Bhikkhus, at the arising of the Thus Gone One, worthy and rightfully enlightened, these four wonderful and surprising things arise.
