佛告阿難:「云何行者觀十方佛?觀十方佛者:東方為始,東方有世界,國名寶安隱,無量億寶有億千色以用合成,佛號善德,亦放無數光普照百千國;亦與無數億分身諸化佛住於行者前。身色如金山端嚴甚無比,坐大金剛窟,無數雜寶光莊嚴為堂閣,一一堂閣前無量微塵數百億諸寶樹;一一寶樹下八萬四千師子座;一一師子座有一分身佛,結加趺坐三昧坐於寶樹下。善德佛世尊身長二百五十億那由他由旬,一一身毛孔無數億微塵一切勝相好;一一相好中有無數化佛;一一化佛高顯巍巍如須彌山,放大光明坐寶蓮華住虛空中。分身諸佛各各開現微妙光明,顯出無數百千化佛;一一化佛坐寶蓮華;一一蓮華有千幢幡;一一幢幡演出百億微妙音聲,是諸聲中教觀十方無數佛身。此相現時,見十方界猶如金剛,百億寶色不滅不壞,見此相已於諸佛前受法王子位,如是境界名性地菩薩。

The Buddha said to Ānanda: “How does a practitioner contemplate the Buddhas of the ten directions? In contemplating the Buddhas of the ten directions, one begins with the east. In the east there is a realm whose land is named Jewel Serenity, formed from the combination of hundreds of thousands of colours of countless koṭis of jewels. The Buddha's name is Good Virtue (Bhadraśrī). He also emits countless rays of light that broadly illuminate hundreds of thousands of lands; and he abides before the practitioner together with countless koṭis of transformation Buddhas who are emanated bodies. His body is coloured like a golden mountain, supremely dignified and incomparable. He sits in a great diamond cave, with halls and pavilions adorned by the light of countless varied jewels. Before each hall and pavilion are countless hundreds of koṭis of jewel trees, in number like fine dust motes. Beneath each jewel tree are eighty-four thousand lion thrones. On each lion throne is an emanated Buddha, sitting cross-legged in samādhi beneath the jewel tree. The Bhagavat Buddha Good Virtue has a body two hundred and fifty koṭis of nayutas of yojanas in height. In each pore of his body are countless koṭis of fine dust motes of all supreme major marks and secondary signs. Within each mark and sign are countless transformation Buddhas. Each transformation Buddha is tall and eminent, towering like Mount Sumeru, emitting great light and sitting upon a jewel lotus flower, dwelling in the empty sky. The emanated Buddhas each reveal wondrous light, displaying countless hundreds of thousands of transformation Buddhas. Each transformation Buddha sits upon a jewel lotus flower; each lotus flower has a thousand banners and flags; each banner and flag produces hundreds of koṭis of wondrous sounds; and within these sounds instruction is given to contemplate the countless Buddha-bodies of the ten directions. When this mark appears, one sees the realms of the ten directions to be like vajra, with hundreds of koṭis of jewel-colours that neither perish nor decay. Having seen this mark, one receives the rank of prince of the Dharma before the Buddhas. Such a realm is called that of a bodhisattva at the stage of noble lineage (gotrabhūmi).
