3.21

「一光照北方,令北方地作車𤦲色,車𤦲地上有金剛塔,一一佛塔百千妙塔以為圍遶,其數無量,塔極小者,高五十億那由他由旬;一一塔中,復有百億塵數龕窟;一一窟中,無量無邊諸寶色水自然踊出,是諸水上有大蓮華開現光明,其光現時香氣微妙,勝海此岸栴檀之香百千萬倍。是香變為微妙光明,諸光明中有諸化佛,身色微妙,寶中上者,一切眾寶從舌相出。時一一窟無量光明;一一光明無量化佛;一一化佛復出舌相,光明無量,亦成香塔,過於北方無量世界,不可窮盡,但從念佛三昧海生。

"One ray of light shines toward the northern direction, making the ground of the north the colour of tridacna. Upon the tridacna ground are diamond stūpas. Each Buddha stūpa is surrounded by hundreds of thousands of wondrous stūpas, immeasurable in number; the smallest stūpa is fifty hundred million nayutas of yojanas high. Inside each stūpa, there are further hundred-million dust-mote-numbered niches and caves. In each cave, immeasurable and boundless waters of jewel colours gush forth naturally. Upon these waters, large lotuses display radiance. When this light appears, its fragrance is exquisite, surpassing the fragrance of sandalwood on this side of the sea by hundreds of thousands of myriads of times. This fragrance transforms into exquisite radiance; within the rays of radiance are transformation Buddhas whose bodily colours are exquisite, supreme among jewels, and all kinds of jewels emerge from their tongue-marks. At that time, in each cave there is immeasurable radiance; in each ray of radiance, immeasurable transformation Buddhas; and each transformation Buddha further extends the mark of the tongue, its radiance immeasurable, also forming fragrant stūpas, extending beyond the immeasurable worlds of the northern direction, inexhaustible—all arising from the ocean-like samādhi of buddha-mindfulness.
