Lakkhaṇasutta untranslated

Lakkhaṇasutta. The thirtieth Sutta of the Dīghanikāya. It gives an account of the thirty-two special marks of the superman (mahāpurisalakkhaṇāni) which signify that their possessor will be either a world emperor (Cakkavatti) or a Buddha. The Sutta definitely states that these marks are entirely due to good deeds done in former births and can only be maintained in the present life by goodness. DN.iii.142-79; the Sutta is quoted in Mil. p. 405.
