Erect a stupa of the seven treasures in any place where this sutra is expounded, read, recited or copied, or in any place where a copy of this sutra exists! The stupa whould be tall, spacious, and adorned. You need not enshrine my sariras in the stupa. Why not? It is because it will contain my perfect body.
