Extended data

With these thirty-two phases, man is in heaven, and so is the king of all saints.

According to the preferences of Indians at that time, the Buddha's thirty-two aspects were superior to all distinguished people and could make all those who saw the Buddha feel respect.

Article 88 of The Theory of Wisdom states: "With the good wishes of the people of Jambu-Di^pa, it is now thirty-two. Today, people in Tianzhu junior high school have handled their shoulders and backs, so that all the thick heads are tied. As they say, it is best to have five directors. Eyes, ears, nose, tongue and arms refer to the hands, feet and mouth of moustache. If the wheel is a lotus, if it is the sun and the moon. Therefore, the Buddha's hands and feet have thousands of spokes, long fingers, good nose height and wide, long and thin tongue. If so, it is more expensive than the first one, so respect. "

The Buddha felt this way because during these hundreds of robberies, one by one, hundreds of blessings were accumulated.

There is a record under the second floor of the dharma circle: "These 32 people connected with the cloud have certain names, which can distinguish them from each other, so they are called phases. The adaptation of the Tathagata embodies these 32 aspects, which shows that Buddhism is full of virtue, which makes those who see it respect and those who get it worship. People in heaven respect the king of all saints, so there are thirty-two phases today. "
