(The Lotus Sutra - Chapter VII The Apparitional City 2)

Thereupon the Bhagavat, wanting to elaborate on the meaning of this further, spoke these verses:

I recall that in the past, 

Immeasurable kalpas ago, 

There was a buddha, the most honored among two-legged beings, 

Called Mahābhijñājñānābhibhū. 

Suppose there was a man 

Who vigorously ground up in its entirety 

The earth of the great manifold cosmos 

And turned it all to powdered ink. 

After passing through one thousand worlds, 

He let fall one particle of ink; 

And in this way He continued to let fall particles 

Until he had used up all the ink.

If all these worlds, 

Those where he let fall a particle 

And those where he did not, 

Were to be ground into specks of dust, 

And one speck of dust were equal to a single kalpa, 

Their number would be surpassed 

By the number of kalpas 

That have passed since that buddha’s parinirvāṇa, 

So incalculable has this number of kalpas been. 

With the Tathāgata’s unobstructed wisdom,

I know of these bodhisattvas and śrāvakas

And the parinirvāṇa of this buddha; 

It is as if I see his parinirvāṇa today. 

O monks, you should know 

That with the knowledge of the Buddha, 

Which is pure and subtle, 

Incorrupted and without obstructions, 

I perceive what happened immeasurable kalpas ago.

(妙法蓮華經第七品 化城喻之2)

爾時世尊欲重宣此義。而說偈言。

　我念過去世　　無量無邊劫

　有佛兩足尊　　名大通智勝

　如人以力磨　　三千大千土

　盡此諸地種　　皆悉以為墨

　過於千國土　　乃下一塵點

　如是展轉點　　盡此諸塵墨

　如是諸國土　　點與不點等

　復盡末為塵　　一塵為一劫

　此諸微塵數　　其劫復過是

　彼佛滅度來　　如是無量劫

　如來無礙智　　知彼佛滅度

　及聲聞菩薩　　如見今滅度

　諸比丘當知　　佛智淨微妙

　無漏無所礙　　通達無量劫
