Zhu Fazhen's Deng Luoshan shu states: 'Sandalwood comes from foreign countries. At the end of the Yuanjia era, the monk Cheng Teng saw a large tree on the mountain; its round shade covered several mu, and its circumference was more than thirty feet. Its pungent fragrance was intense and biting. In its midst were withered branches several feet long; he drew them down and cut into them with a blade—it was white sandalwood.' The letters of Yu Yiqi state: 'All the various fragrances share a single tree; the root of the tree is sandalwood.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 36.86](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.36.86) - [Next: 36.88](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.36.88) - [Up: 36](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.36) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122~en-mt.36.87) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.36.87](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.36.87) · Pramāṇa
