The Arya Sanghatasutra Dharmaparyaya

The Noble Mahayana Sanghata Sutra Dharma-paryaya 

“Then the king and the thirty million ministers went out together, and the two men were placed in prison. Then the king himself planted a tree, and that tree neither took root, nor did leaves, flowers or fruit appear. So the king became enraged and said, ‘You, go quickly; come back with axes for felling trees.’ They were fetched and, enraged at the tree planted by that man, he cut the leaves, flowers and fruit that had arisen on that tree. As soon as he cut that single tree, twelve trees appeared. He cut the twelve trees, and there appeared twenty-four trees made of the seven precious substances, together with roots, leaves and shoots. Then, from those twenty-four trees, there appeared twenty-four birds with golden crests and golden beaks and feathers made of the seven precious substances. At that, the king was overcome with rage and, taking the ax in his own hand, chopped at a tree. From the tree that he had chopped, nectar appeared. The king was troubled by that and issued instructions, ‘Go and remove those two men from prison.’ As you command, Your Majesty.’ He raced off that very instant. The two men were removed from the prison and led to where the trees were.

僧伽吒经 

    时王集三十亿臣禁守彼人。然后大王自种其树。不生芽叶。不生华果。尔时大王。心大恚怒敕诸臣言。汝等速取利斧。彼所种树仰令斫伐。尔时诸臣受王教令斫断彼树。一树断已生十二树。斫十二树断生二十四树。茎叶华果皆是七宝。尔时二十四树。变生二十四亿鸡鸟。皆是金嘴七宝羽翼。尔时大王复生嗔怒。自执利斧往伐彼树。王斫树时。从树出生甘泉美水。时王惭愧敕诸臣言。放彼二人。诸臣白言。大王受教诸臣去已。放彼二人将至王所。

大集会正法经     

    时王即与三十俱胝臣寮同诣树所。既至彼已即见其树枝叶滋茂果实繁多。见已生信叹其希有。王时于彼亦种一树。亦不即生芽茎枝叶况复华果。王既见已惭对臣寮。生大嗔恚即敕令伐。彼先种树诸力士等。咸遵王命持斧竞伐伐一树时有十二树同时复生。七宝庄严广大殊妙。时王见已转复生嗔。又敕令伐如是等树。时诸力士又共持斧伐十二树。伐此树时是处复有二十四树同时还生。彼一一树枝叶华果转复繁茂。又复皆有一命啄鸟游戏其上。众色严身音声清妙。时王见已复甚嗔恚。自索一斧欲断一树。斧所及处甘露流溢。时王见已便生信悔。敕令召彼先种树人。是时此人先被持缚。今方得解奔诣王所。
