“Further, the bodhi-tree of the Buddha of Immeasurable Life is four million li in height, with a girth, at its base, of fifty yojanas. Its branches and leaves spread two hundred thousand li in the four directions. It is formed naturally of a composite of all kinds of gems. The kings of gems—the moon-radiant mani-jewel and the ocean-supporting wheel gem—adorn it.
Everywhere amid its branches hang jeweled adornments. There are a thousand million colors that change in various ways. Immeasurable light illuminates everything without bound. Nets of rare and wondrous jewels cover it. All the ornaments appear in response to one’s wishes. (Larger Sukhavati Vyuha Sutra)
