The virtues that formed one pore of the Buddha’s body is equivalent to ten times that of achieving Arhatship. The virtues that formed a single of the 80 marks of the Buddha’s body is equivalent to a hundred times that of all the pores. The virtues that formed each of the 30 signs is equivalent to a hundred times that of all the 80 marks. The virtues needed to form the ūrṇā (white turf of hair between His eyebrow) is equivalent to a thousand times that of all the 30 signs. The virtues needed to form the uṣṇīṣa-śiraskatā (extended crown) is equivalent to 100,000 times that of the ūrṇā. 
That is how countless the virtues of the Buddha’s body is!

获得声闻、独觉果位的福德,乘以十倍,才能成就佛薄伽梵一个毛孔。所有毛孔的福德,乘以一百倍,才能够成就佛陀八十随形好中的一种随好。所有八十随形好的福德,再乘以一百倍,能够成就除了佛陀白毫相和顶髻相之外的三十相。成就这些相好的福德再乘以一千倍,能够成就佛陀的白毫相。然后这个福德再乘以十万倍,就成就了佛陀的顶髻相。
佛就是累积了无量的福德才成就如此殊妙的佛身!
