7.136

[Atimuktaka]: The Zongjing lu, quoting the Mahāyānasaṃgraha, states: 'Sesame was originally charcoal; buried in the earth for a long time, it turned into sesame. In the Western regions, if they wish to make body-anointing fragrant oil, they first take the sesame seeds and gather them in one place with fragrant flowers, soaking them until completely macerated. Later they press the sesame for oil, and the oil accordingly becomes fragrant.'
