爾時佛告四天王。汝施我碼瑙。又告帝釋。汝施我金銀。又告魔王梵王。汝施我天工師。又告脩吉龍王羅睺阿脩羅等。汝施我明月寶珠及摩尼珠等。用為塔燈明。天龍王等各依命獻。世尊受已。以其神力。於一念頃諸塔皆成。地為六種震動。塔放大光。從於香山直至戒壇。化為金銀臺。臺至有頂中。有百億佛。說諸勝妙法。歎持戒功德。毀破戒者。

At that time, the Buddha told the Four Heavenly Kings: "You shall offer me agate." He also told Śakra: "You shall offer me gold and silver." He also told the demon king and the Brahmā king: "You shall offer me heavenly artisans." He also told the dragon king Śukla, the asura Rāhu, and others: "You shall offer me luminous moon jewels, cintāmaṇi gems, and the like, to serve as lamp illumination for the stūpas." The devas, nāga kings, and others each made offerings as commanded. The World-Honoured One, having received them, through his spiritual power, in the space of a single thought, all the stūpas were completed. The earth shook in six ways. The stūpas emitted a great light extending from Mount Gandhamādana directly to the ordination platform, transforming into terraces of gold and silver. The terraces reached up to Akaniṣṭha, wherein there were ten billion Buddhas expounding various supreme and wondrous dharmas, praising the merits of upholding the precepts and reproaching those who violate them.
