頗梨（力私反頗胝迦此云水精又云水玉或云白珠大智度論中此寶出山石𰍅中一云過千年冰化為之此言無據西方暑熱土地無冰多饒此寶何物化焉此但石類處處皆有也）。

> Quartz crystal (頗梨): lisi \[fanqie\]; sphaṭika; translated here as "water essence" (rock crystal), also called "water jade", or called "white pearl". In the Da zhidu lun: this jewel is produced in the crags of rocky mountains. One theory says that ice turns into it after more than a thousand years; this statement is unfounded, for the western lands are sweltering and hot without ice, yet are abundant in this jewel—what could have transformed into it? This is merely a type of stone, found everywhere.
