而且对于诸法也能像做梦一样迅速通达。将背离八劫的轮回。在五千个佛土处,有一个名为“形貌金色美好”的世界,如来、应供、正等觉,名为“须弥显现”的佛陀安住于彼。此外,舍利子,凡是听闻如来须弥显现之名,并且不间断地持诵其名者,将背离十劫的轮回。在两万个佛土处,有一个名为“有光”的世界,如来、应供、正等觉,名为“如须弥山”的佛陀安住于彼。舍利子,凡是听闻如来如须弥山之名,乃至弹指作声,或者描绘其像并忆念者,舍利子,如果有人用阎浮河的金板铺满三千大千世界并作布施,不如忆念这位如来。此福德聚与前者的福德聚相比,连百分之一也不及,乃至无法比拟。这是为什么呢?因为如来的名号具有强大的力量。更何况对安住的如来作尊敬,以及对涅槃后的舍利作供养呢?经过无数千佛土后,有一个名为“获得一切力量”的世界,如来、应供、正等觉,名为“普香”的佛陀安住于彼。此外,舍利子,如来普香在行菩萨行时,曾发下这样的愿:凡是我对佛陀作尊敬,以及对如来云聚焚烧芥子大小的香丸所积累的善根,以此善根,当我证得无上正等觉时,愿我所有毛孔都能散发出悦意的香气!

Moreover, they will quickly and thoroughly understand all phenomena as if in a dream. They will turn their backs on eight kalpas of samsara. In five thousand Buddha-fields, there is a world called "Beautiful Golden Form," where the Tathagata, Arhat, Samyak-sambuddha, named "Mount Meru Manifest," resides. Furthermore, Shariputra, whoever hears the name of the Tathagata Mount Meru Manifest and continuously holds his name will turn their backs on ten kalpas of samsara. In twenty thousand Buddha-fields, there is a world called "Luminous," where the Tathagata, Arhat, Samyak-sambuddha, named "Like Mount Meru," resides. Shariputra, whoever hears the name of the Tathagata Like Mount Meru, even just snapping their fingers, or drawing an image and contemplating it, Shariputra, if someone were to pave the three thousand great thousand worlds with gold slabs from the Jambu River and give them as alms, it would not compare to contemplating this Tathagata. This accumulation of merit is not even close to one percent of the previous accumulation of merit, and it is even unbearable to compare. Why is that? Because the sound of the Buddha is so powerful. What need is there to say about honoring the Tathagata who is dwelling, and making offerings to the relics after Nirvana? After countless thousands of Buddha-fields, there is a world called "Obtained All Powers," where the Tathagata, Arhat, Samyak-sambuddha, named "Universal Fragrance," resides. Furthermore, Shariputra, the Tathagata Universal Fragrance, when practicing the conduct of a Bodhisattva, made this aspiration: Whatever respect I have shown to the Buddha, and whatever roots of virtue I have accumulated by burning incense balls the size of mustard seeds to the Tathagata Cloud Assembly, with that root of virtue, when I attain the unexcelled perfect enlightenment, may all the pores of my skin emit pleasing fragrances!

而且从十方世界的,如恒河沙数那样的,充满香云。那些世界的众生,凡是闻到香味,听到名号的,在他们获得菩提时,身体毛孔中都能散发出悦意的香味。舍利子,哪位善于受持如来普香的受持,想要受持的善男子或善女人,即使七天断食,不吃任何食物,只要听闻名号,那样的功德也是无法言说的。为什么呢?因为一听到这个名号,就能获得无量的功德聚。然后,具寿舍利子对世尊说:世尊,请您宣说听闻如来普香功德的福德之聚,这样末世的善男子或善女人听闻后,就能获得广大的欢喜和喜悦。无论以何种方式听闻佛法,恶魔都无法找到机会。这是为什么呢?因为他们会被诸佛所忆念,那时他们就不会舍弃无上正等觉。世尊说:舍利子,如来普香的福德之聚,如果我全部告诉你,众生会感到迷惑,因为他们没有听闻名号的善根,或者没有信奉的福德。舍利子,如果有人信奉、信仰,并且心中充满喜悦,心想我不会从佛法中退转,舍利子,那么就为你稍微展示一下那福德之聚的一部分。智者们会领悟到,他们会进入到具有大智慧的言说中。还有,舍利子,如果将如娑婆世界一样大小的十个佛土,充满七宝,无量

Moreover, from the ten directions of the world, as numerous as the sands of the Ganges River, filled with clouds of incense. Those sentient beings of those worlds, all who smell the fragrance and hear the name, may a pleasing fragrance emanate from the pores of their bodies when they attain enlightenment. Shariputra, whichever well-grasped holding of the Tathagata's Universal Fragrance, the well-grasped holding, the son or daughter of good family who wishes to hold it, even if they fast for seven days, not eating any food, as long as they hear the name, such merit is unspeakable. Why is that? Because as soon as they hear this name, they will receive immeasurable accumulations of merit. Then, the venerable Shariputra said to the Blessed One: Blessed One, please declare the accumulation of merit from hearing the qualities of the Tathagata's Universal Fragrance, so that the sons or daughters of good family in the future, upon hearing this, may obtain great joy and delight. In whatever way they listen to the Dharma of the Buddha, the evil one will not be able to find an opportunity. Why is that? Because they will be remembered by the Buddhas, and at that time they will not abandon the unexcelled, perfect, and complete enlightenment. The Blessed One said: Shariputra, if I were to tell you all of the accumulations of merit of the Tathagata's Universal Fragrance, sentient beings would become confused, because they do not have the roots of virtue from hearing the name, or the merit of having faith. Shariputra, if there are those who believe, have faith, and whose minds are filled with joy, thinking, 'I will not turn back from the Dharma of the Buddha,' Shariputra, then I will show you just a portion of that accumulation of merit. The wise will realize that they will enter into speech that possesses great wisdom. Furthermore, Shariputra, if ten Buddha-fields, as large as the Saha world, are filled with the seven precious jewels, immeasurable
