大方便佛報恩經 1.17

1.17

The bodhisattvas of that land, immeasurable thousands of kotis of them, surrounded him front and rear and stepped back to stand to one side. Joining their palms toward the Tathāgata, with one voice they spoke together, saying: "We pray only that the Bhagavat have pity and compassion. For what cause and condition is there this light—blue, yellow, red, and white, its color brilliant and radiant beyond comparison? Coming from the north, it illuminates this great assembly, and those who meet this light feel ease and serenity in their minds. We pray only that the Bhagavat sever our net of doubts."
