30.28

Beyond Jambudvīpa, in the western ocean, there is a silver mountain named Bodhicandra. On it there is a cave named Vajra, which is also a place where a bodhisattva dwelt in the past; inside it is a boar cultivating śrāvaka-loving-kindness. There is another cave named Fragrant Virtue, which is also a place where a bodhisattva dwelt in the past; inside it is a rat cultivating śrāvaka-loving-kindness. There is another cave named Lofty Virtue, which is also a place where a bodhisattva originally dwelt; inside it is an ox cultivating śrāvaka-loving-kindness. On the mountain there is a wind deity named Moving Wind, and there is a rākṣasī named Devaguptā; each is surrounded by a retinue of five hundred. These two women constantly make offerings to these three beasts.
