2.8

菩薩。已從此沒。生於人間淨飯王家。乘旃檀樓閣。處摩耶夫人胎(華嚴經)從兜率下。法身眷屬。如陰雲籠月。共降母胎。胎若虛空。常宣妙法(妙玄○大機所見託胎相)。

The Bodhisattva, having passed away from there, was born in the human world into the household of King Śuddhodana; riding in a sandalwood pavilion, he dwelt in Lady Māyā's womb. (Avataṃsaka Sūtra.) Descending from Tuṣita, his retinue of the Dharma-body was like dark clouds veiling the moon, descending together into the mother's womb. The womb was like empty space, constantly proclaiming the marvelous Dharma. (Miaoxuan. Note: The aspect of conception as seen by great capacities.)
