2.38

「因白毫光初生項光,生王宮時此光如日,見不了了,圓光一尋別自當說。時諸八部覩白毫光所見不同,有見白毛猶如諸佛;有見白毫如諸菩薩;有見白毛如己父母,一切世間可尊敬事,悉於毛端了了得見,見已歡喜。有發無上菩提心者;有發聲聞、緣覺心者,如是諸鬼見白毛者,自然慈心無諸惡意。」

“Owing to the light of the white ūrṇā, the halo behind his neck first arose. When he was born in the royal palace, this light was like the sun, not clearly seen; the halo of one fathom will be explained separately. At that time, the eight classes of beings, beholding the light of the white ūrṇā, saw different things: some saw the white hair like the Buddhas; some saw the white ūrṇā like the bodhisattvas; some saw the white hair like their own parents. All venerated matters of the world were seen clearly at the tip of the hair, and upon seeing them they rejoiced. Some brought forth the supreme bodhicitta; some brought forth the minds of śrāvakas or pratyekabuddhas; and the ghosts who saw the white hair naturally developed minds of compassion, free of any malice.”
