佛說觀佛三昧海經 3.19

3.19

「一光照南方無量世界，令其世界作琉璃色，琉璃地上生黃金華；黃金華上生馬腦華；馬腦華上生車𤦲華；車𤦲華上生玫瑰華；玫瑰華上生虎魄華；虎魄華上生珊瑚華；珊瑚華上生金精華；金精華上生金剛華；金剛華上生摩尼光華；摩尼光華一一葉間，有無量色百億寶華。一一華鬚，有無量釋迦牟尼，結加趺坐，菩薩大眾以為圍遶，時諸大眾身毛孔中亦出此華；一一華上現希有事，亦如上說。是諸化佛出廣長舌相開現光明，倍勝是相百千萬倍。於諸華間有妙寶座，高顯可觀如梵王床；一一床上有大菩薩，身相端嚴猶如彌勒，亦出廣長舌相，其舌光明作摩尼網，覆諸化佛及與大眾，摩尼網間出大寶光，其寶光端。復有無量無邊化佛，一一化佛各有無數比丘侍從，時諸比丘坐金蓮華身黃金色，安禪合掌入念佛定，身諸毛孔出金色光，此一一光化成化佛，猶如金山，圍遶比丘，有化比丘亦圍遶佛，如是眾多數不可說。

"One ray of light illuminates the immeasurable worlds of the southern direction, making those worlds the colour of lapis lazuli. Upon the lapis lazuli ground grow golden flowers; upon the golden flowers grow agate flowers; upon the agate flowers grow tridacna flowers; upon the tridacna flowers grow rose-gem flowers; upon the rose-gem flowers grow amber flowers; upon the amber flowers grow coral flowers; upon the coral flowers grow solar-essence flowers; upon the solar-essence flowers grow diamond flowers; upon the diamond flowers grow mani-light flowers. Between each petal of the mani-light flowers, there are immeasurable colours and hundreds of millions of jewelled flowers. On each flower stamen, there are immeasurable Śākyamuni [Buddhas] sitting cross-legged, surrounded by the great assembly of bodhisattvas. At that time, from the bodily pores of all in the great assembly, these flowers also emerge. Rare events appear on each flower, as described above. These transformation Buddhas extend their broad and long tongues, displaying radiance that is hundreds of thousands of myriads of times superior to those marks. Between the flowers are exquisite jewelled thrones, lofty and magnificent like the couch of the Brahmā king. On each couch is a great bodhisattva, with features dignified and majestic like Maitreya, who also extends the mark of the broad and long tongue. The radiance of their tongues forms mani nets covering the transformation Buddhas and the great assembly. From within the mani nets, great precious light emerges; at the tip of that precious light, there are further immeasurable and boundless transformation Buddhas. Each transformation Buddha has countless bhikṣu attendants. At that time, the bhikṣus sit on golden lotus flowers, their bodies golden-yellow, settled in dhyāna with palms joined, entering the concentration of buddha-mindfulness (buddhānusmṛti-samādhi). From all the pores of their bodies, golden light emerges. Each ray of light transforms into a transformation Buddha like a golden mountain, surrounding the bhikṣus, and transformation bhikṣus also surround the Buddhas, in numbers too great to be spoken of.
