七金山者,一、踰健馱羅,此云持雙山,頂有兩稜故;二、毘那砣迦,此云障礙。有神住中,障善法故。又解:有神王,人身、象頭,作魔事,能障行者,此山形彼神頭,故名障難也。三、頞濕縛羯拏,此云馬耳,似馬耳故;四、蘇達梨舍那,蘇者善義,達梨舍那見義,即善見山,見此山形善多生故;五、朅達洛迦,此云擔木,往阿修羅,以此木擔須彌山,山有擔木,故以為名;六、伊沙馱羅,此云持軸,山峯似軸故;七、尼民達羅,海中魚名,此無所翻,山峯似之故以為稱,此與俱舍次第不同。樓炭經明三種鐵山,應尋彼文。

The seven golden mountains are: first, Yugaṃdhara, translated here as 'Bearing the Yoke,' because its summit has two ridges; second, Vinataka, translated here as 'Obstacle,' because a deity dwells in it who obstructs good dharmas—another explanation is: there is a deity king with a human body and an elephant head who performs māra deeds and can obstruct practitioners; this mountain resembles that deity's head, hence it is named 'Obstacle and Difficulty'; third, Aśvakarṇa, translated here as 'Horse Ear,' because it resembles a horse's ear; fourth, Sudarśana—su means good, and darśana means sight, so it is the 'Fair-to-See' mountain, because seeing the shape of this mountain, much goodness arises; fifth, Khadiraka, translated here as 'Acacia Wood'—formerly, an asura carried Mount Sumeru with this wood, and the mountain has acacia wood, hence it is named for it; sixth, Īṣādhara, translated here as 'Holding the Axle,' because the mountain peak resembles an axle; seventh, Nimindhara, the name of a fish in the sea, which is not translated here; the mountain peak resembles it, hence it is named for it. This differs in order from the Kośa. The Loutan jing explains three kinds of iron mountains; one should consult that text.
