Now, Gautama, I say, ordain, declare and establish that outside the city of Rājagțha, in the proximity of the Vaibhāra hill, there is a spring named Mahātapopatīra-prabhava80 which is 500 dhanușas square (i.e., on each side), and whose other extreme is decorated with many species of trees, which is beautiful, delightful, worth-seeing, graceful and pleasing to the eyes of all visitors. Souls capable of living in hot region and matter together take shape (therein) as water-bodies, and they also die there, and undergo transformation and assimilation (there). When it is full, there is a steady outflow of water from it. That is a spring named Mahātapopatira-prabhava, and that is the implication (full story) of this spring named Mahātapopatira-prabhava. सेवं भंते ! सेवं भंते ! ति भगवं गोयमे समणं भगवं महावीरं दइ F'S...Ta faptei Bhante !
