- **Language:** Classical Chinese

### [72.19](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2122.72.19)

又樓炭經云。天下諸龍以三熱見燒。阿耨達龍王不以三熱見燒。一餘龍王。熱沙雨身上燒炙甚痛。二餘龍王起婬相向熱風來吹其身上。焦即失顏色。得蛇身便恐不喜。三餘龍王被金翅鳥食。悉皆恐悑。天下餘龍悉見毒熱。唯阿耨達龍王獨不見熱。

> Furthermore, the Loutan jing says: All dragons in the world are scorched by the three heats; only the dragon king Anavatapta is not scorched by the three heats. First: on the bodies of the other dragon kings, hot sand rains down and scorches them with extreme pain. Second: when the other dragon kings give rise to lustful thoughts toward one another, a hot wind comes and blows upon their bodies; as they are scorched, they immediately lose their complexions, and taking on snake bodies, they become terrified and unhappy. Third: the other dragon kings are devoured by garuḍa birds, and all live in terror. All other dragons in the world suffer from poisonous heat; only the dragon king Anavatapta alone does not experience the heat.
