金剛般若論會釋 2.53

2.53

In the fourth, "Offerings by Gods and Others," there is first the correlation to the sūtra, and then the explanation. As for the etiquette of making offerings to a caitya: using flowers as garlands to hang around the neck, and now relinquishing them into the stūpa; as for paste incense, grinding purple and white sandalwood, aloeswood, and so forth, mixing them with water, and smearing it upon the stūpa; as for powdered incense, crushing and pounding aloeswood and sandalwood to scatter them inside the stūpa; the rest can be understood. External wealth and internal reverence are treated briefly without verbal praises.
