人中有香。名大象藏。因龍鬪生。若燒一丸。興大光明細雲覆上。味如甘露。七日七夜降香水雨。若著身者身則金色。若著衣服宮殿樓閣。亦悉金色。若有眾生得聞此香。七日七夜歡喜悅樂。滅一切病無有枉橫。遠離恐怖危害之心。專向大慈普念眾生。我知彼已而為說法。令無量眾生得不退轉(出華嚴經第四十二卷)。
Among human beings there is an incense named Treasury of the Great Elephant, produced on account of dragons fighting. If one pellet is burned, it gives rise to a great light and fine clouds cover above, tasting like nectar. For seven days and seven nights, a rain of fragrant water falls. If it touches one's body, the body turns golden. If it touches clothing, palaces, or pavilions, they likewise all turn golden. If any sentient beings catch scent of this incense, for seven days and seven nights they are joyful and glad; all their illnesses are extinguished without any untimely or violent death; they leave far behind any mind of fear, harm, or danger, and focus exclusively on great loving-kindness, universally mindful of sentient beings. I know them and preach the Dharma for them, causing immeasurable sentient beings to attain non-retrogression (from the forty-second fascicle of the *Avataṃsaka-sūtra*).
