2.64

「或燒香、塗香,莊嚴佛事,焚一捻而位期妙果;塗故塔而身出栴檀。昔佛在世,時有長者名栴檀香,昔曾以香泥塗故塔;從是已來九十一劫,身諸毛孔出栴檀香,從其口出優鉢華香。

"Or burning incense and smearing scented paste to adorn the Buddha's affairs: burning a single pinch looks forward to the wonderful fruit; smearing an old stūpa causes sandalwood fragrance to emit from the body. Long ago, when the Buddha was in the world, there was an elder named Candana-Incense who in the past had smeared scented mud onto an old stūpa; since then, for ninety-one kalpas, a sandalwood scent has emitted from all the pores of his body, and the fragrance of utpala flowers has issued from his mouth."
