[162] "Bhikkhus, it is impossible, there is no chance, that two Arahants, Fully Self-Enlightened Ones (arahanto sammāsambuddhā), should arise in one world-element (lokadhātu) neither before nor after one another — this is not possible. But it is possible, bhikkhus, that one Arahant, a Fully Self-Enlightened One, should arise in one world-element — this is possible." The First Chapter (vagga).
