佛告大眾。自念古昔所行功德。捨身受身非一非二。我今說之。一身形法此大地種厚八十四萬億里。乃有風厚八十四萬億里。風下有水厚八十四萬億里。水下有火厚八十四萬億里。火下有沙厚八十四萬億里。沙下有金剛厚八十四萬億里。諸佛全身舍利及碎身舍利皆在金剛際剎中。金剛剎復厚八十四萬億里。名曰妙香。佛名不住。十號具足。現在說法(出菩薩處胎經第二卷)。

The Buddha told the great assembly: 'Reflecting upon the merits I practiced in ancient times, discarding my body and receiving a body was not once or twice. I shall now speak of it. The physical form of this great earth-element is eight hundred and forty billion leagues thick. Then there is wind, eight hundred and forty billion leagues thick. Below the wind is water, eight hundred and forty billion leagues thick. Below the water is fire, eight hundred and forty billion leagues thick. Below the fire is sand, eight hundred and forty billion leagues thick. Below the sand is diamond, eight hundred and forty billion leagues thick. The whole-body relics and the broken-body relics of the Buddhas are all within the realm at the diamond boundary. The diamond realm is further eight hundred and forty billion leagues thick; it is named Wondrous Fragrance. The Buddha there is named Non-Abiding, fully possessing the ten epithets, and is currently preaching the Dharma.' (From the second fascicle of the Bodhisattva in the Womb Sūtra)
