The bodhisattva, having died from there, was born in the human world into the household of King Śuddhodana, riding a sandalwood multi-storied pavilion to abide in Lady Māyā's womb (Avataṃsaka-sūtra. ○ Sandalwood is a fragrant wood, translated here as 'bestower of joy.' 'Māyā' is translated here as 'great young woman,' the mother who gave birth to the Buddha).
