Question: What evidence do you have to support this?
Answers: The conclusion of the Wisdom Sutra, the Sutra of the Benevolent King, states that this teaching was preached "in the 29th year" since the Buddha began preaching the Wisdom Sutra. As the buddha had spent 12 years preaching the Agama sutras, it was in the 42nd year of His preaching when He finished preaching the Wisdom Sutra. And the Sutra of Infinite Meaning declares,"The truth had not been revealed for forty years or so since His attainment of Buddhahood."
