### [37.7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.37.7)

如觀佛三昧經云。佛留影石室。在那乾呵羅國毒龍池側。佛坐龍石室窟中。為龍作十八變。踊身入石。猶如明鏡。在於石內映現於外。遠望則見近望不現。諸天百千。供養佛影亦說法（迄今不滅待至彌勒）。

> As stated in the Guanfo sanmei jing: The Buddha left his shadow in a stone chamber beside the poisonous dragon's pool in the kingdom of Nagarahāra. The Buddha sat in the dragon's stone chamber cave and performed eighteen transformations for the dragon. Leaping up, his body entered the rock, appearing like a clear mirror; within the rock, it was reflected on the outside. Viewed from afar, it could be seen; viewed up close, it did not appear. Hundreds of thousands of devas made offerings to the Buddha's shadow, which also expounded the Dharma. (Even down to the present, it has not disappeared, awaiting the coming of Maitreya.)
