菩薩從兜術天降神母胎說廣普經 7.110

7.110

時優波吉言：「諸君且止，舍利宜共分之。」即分為三分，一分與諸天，一分與龍王，一分與八王，金瓮受一石餘。此臣密以蜜塗瓮裏，以瓮量即分舍利。諸天得舍利還於天上，即起七寶塔偷婆。龍得舍利還於龍宮，亦起七寶塔偷婆。八王得舍利各還本國，亦起七寶塔偷婆。臣優波吉得著金瓮舍利三斗并瓮，亦起七寶塔偷婆。灰及土四十九斛，起四十九七寶塔偷婆。當耶維處亦起七寶塔偷婆，高四十九仞，香花供養懸繒幡蓋，終日竟夜音樂聲不斷。佛之威神令諸七寶塔各各有光明，或夜放光明與晝無異，或晝放光明與夜無異，諸護塔善神各各來營護，不令惡人有觸犯者。

Then Upakāśa said, “Gentlemen, please stop! The śarīra should be shared among all.” They immediately divided it into three shares: one share for the devas, one share for the nāga kings, and one share for the eight kings, using a golden urn holding just over one dān. This minister had secretly coated the inside of the urn with honey, and measured and divided the śarīra with the urn. The devas obtained their śarīra and returned to the heavens, immediately erecting a seven-jeweled stūpa. The nāgas obtained their śarīra and returned to the nāga palace, likewise erecting a seven-jeweled stūpa. The eight kings obtained their śarīra and each returned to their own kingdom, likewise erecting seven-jeweled stūpas. The minister Upakāśa obtained three dǒu of śarīra adhering to the golden urn together with the urn, and also erected a seven-jeweled stūpa. For the ashes and earth, forty-nine hú in all, forty-nine seven-jeweled stūpas were erected. At the place of the jhāpita, a seven-jeweled stūpa was also erected, forty-nine fathoms high, worshipped with incense, flowers, hanging silk banners, and canopies, with the sounds of music continuing unbroken day and night. Through the Buddha’s spiritual power, the seven-jeweled stūpas each emitted light; some emitted light at night no different from daytime, and some emitted light by day no different from nighttime. Good spirits protecting the stūpas came to safeguard them, preventing evil persons from violating them.
