The correct Sanskrit sound is sàpòzhìjiā \[sphaṭika\]. Ancient translations say it is rock crystal, but this explanation is incorrect. Although it resembles rock crystal, it has four distinct colors: purple, white, red, and emerald green. Pure, lustrous, and transparent, it is the most supreme among jewels. Red and emerald green are the most precious, while purple and white follow. Like fine bright cinnabar, it is pure without blemish; claiming it is formed from thousand-year-old ice is an erroneous assertion). > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 4.116](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.4.116) - [Next: 4.118](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.4.118) - [Up: 4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.4) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128~en-mt.4.117) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.4.117](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2128.4.117) · Pramāṇa
