佛祖統紀 36.147

36.147

按東方朔十洲記。扶桑在東海去東岸一萬里。海水碧色甘香。扶桑在碧海中地方萬里。大帝太真所治。林木如桑。兩兩同根更相依倚。故名扶桑。仙人食其椹體作金色。今慧深言去東三萬里。當是遠人不測此中地里。故言若此。瓦官寺有師子國玉像。戴安道手製佛像五軀。顧長康維摩畫圖。世謂之三絕。東昏侯取玉像。為潘貴妃毀作釧釵。都人為之歎恨。

According to Dongfang Shuo's *Shizhou Ji* (Record of the Ten Continents): 'Fusang is in the Eastern Sea, ten thousand li from the eastern coast. The sea waters are blue-green, sweet, and fragrant. Fusang is located within the blue-green sea, a territory of ten thousand li square, ruled by the Great Emperor Tai Zhen. The trees resemble mulberries, growing in pairs from the same root and leaning against each other; hence the name Fusang. Immortals eat their fruit, and their bodies become golden.' Now Huishen states that it is thirty thousand li to the east; this must be because distant people cannot accurately gauge the distances here, hence he spoke in this way. Waguan Monastery housed a jade statue from the kingdom of Siṃhala, five Buddha statues fashioned by Dai Andao's own hands, and Gu Changkang's painting of Vimalakīrti; the world called them the 'Three Rarities.' The Marquis of Donghun took the jade statue and smashed it to make armlets and hairpins for Consort Pan, which caused deep grief and resentment among the people of the capital.
