🔎In Mahāpadesa sutta lord buddha gave tool to verify the suttas wether to accept it or not. If any teaching doesn't fit in discourse and are not exihibited in training. Clearly this is not words of Awakened one and you should reject. Just apply and see acceptable or not.

Reading the ancient Buddhist Suttas is like watching Lord of the Rings. Lord Buddha through psychic powers could emit fire from his body. We find two intances one when Buddha tamed the Dragon at Uruvelā. Second when Buddha performed Twin Miracle (Yamaka-pātihāriya) at Savatthi.

buddha was the farthest thing from a virgin tho they painted his earlobes as hanging to potray all the hedonism he once had decked in jewellery he was considered so attractive that in the earliest indian suttas even men converted to his faith awestruck by his beauty.
