注維摩詰經 10.27

10.27

天帝！正使三千大千世界如來滿中，譬如甘蔗竹葦、稻麻叢林。若有善男子善女人，或一劫或減一劫，恭敬尊重、讚歎供養、奉諸所安。至諸佛滅後，以一一全身舍利起七寶塔，縱廣一四天下、高至梵天，表剎莊嚴，以一切華香瓔珞幢幡伎樂微妙第一，若一劫若減一劫而供養之。於天帝意云何？其人植福寧為多不？釋提桓因言：多矣。世尊！彼之福德，若以百千億劫說不能盡。佛告天帝：當知是善男子善女人聞是不可思議解脫經典，信解受持、讀誦修行，福多於彼。

Heavenly King, suppose the major trichiliocosm were filled with Tathāgatas, like sugarcane, bamboo, reeds, rice, hemp, and thickets; and suppose a good son or good daughter, for a kalpa or less than a kalpa, were to revere, honour, praise, make offerings to them, and supply all that brings them comfort; and after the passing of these buddhas, were to erect seven-jeweled stūpas for the complete-body relics of each, spanning one four-continent world in breadth and reaching up to the Brahma Heaven in height, adorned with umbrellas and banners, and make offerings to them with all kinds of flowers, incense, necklaces, banners, flags, and the finest subtle music, for a kalpa or less than a kalpa—what do you think, Heavenly King? Would the merit planted by this person be great?" Śakra Devānām Indra said: "It would be great, World-Honoured One! That merit could not be fully described even in hundreds of thousands of koṭis of kalpas." The Buddha told the Heavenly King: "You should know that if a good son or good daughter hears this sūtra of inconceivable liberation, believes, understands, receives, upholds, reads, recites, and practices it, their merit will be greater than that.
