Formerly, when the Buddha was in the world, it was several hundred feet tall; although repeatedly subjected to being chopped down, it is still forty to fifty feet tall. The Buddha sat beneath it and accomplished equal, correct awakening; consequently, it was called the Bodhi tree. Its trunk is yellowish-white, and its branches and leaves are lush green; it does not wither in winter or summer, remaining lustrous and fresh without change. Whenever the day of nirvāṇa arrives, its leaves all wither and fall, and after a short while return to their previous state." The \*Forest of Dharma Origins\* says: "The tree of awakening of Śākya is named \*apadra\* \[aśvattha\]." > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 3.129](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.3.129) - [Next: 3.131](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.3.131) - [Up: 3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131~en-mt.3.130) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.3.130](https://indike.org/pramana/in.bauddha.taisho.2131.3.130) · Pramāṇa
