I also have a favorite of all the bodhisattvas in the last book of a sutra, a perfumer by the name of Utpalabhuti. It isn't just that I love the names of these ancients. It's their antiquity and it's the worlds upon worlds of possibilities inhering the contemplation of them, the scents of them, the sense of them.
