Regarding the "seven treasures," the Sukhāvatīvyūhopadeśa states: "First, gold; second, silver; third, vaidūrya; fourth, sphaṭika; fifth, red pearl; sixth, aśmagarbha; and seventh, musāragalva." Paramārtha says: "The Sanskrit word bhattarasa (pātarāga), translated here as yellow gem, is gold. The Sanskrit word candraka, translated here as white gem, is silver. The Sanskrit word vaidūrya is translated here as blue-colored gem; burning cannot destroy it, and it is the egg of the golden bird's wing." Sphaṭika is translated here as a yellowish-green gem. The Da zhidu lun says: "Ice that has surpassed a thousand years transforms into sphaṭika crystals." Regarding pearls, the Buddhabhūmyupadeśa says: "They emerge from the mouths of red worms, so the body of the pearl is also red." Aśmagarbha was formerly called agate; Paramārtha says: "It is a red-colored gem." Musāragalva was formerly called tridacna; Paramārtha says: "It is a dark-blue gem." The Da zhidu lun says: "Gold emerges from mountain rocks; pearls emerge from fish bellies; coral emerges from the sea; pearls emerge from shells of mollusks; silver emerges from roasted rocks; and the remaining jades all emerge from mountain crags. Cintāmaṇi gems emerge from the Buddha's relics; that is, when the Dharma disappears and comes to an end, all the relics transform into cintāmaṇi gems." The Mahāyāna treatises state: "The seven treasures are all subsumed under stone." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.82](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774.1.82) - [Next: 1.84](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774.1.84) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774~en-mt.1.83) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774.1.83](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.1774.1.83) · Pramāṇa
