Visuddhimagga IX-63

Manussānaṃ piyo hotīti ure āmuttamuttāhāro viya sīse piḷandhamālā viya ca manussānaṃ piyo hoti manāpo.

（四）「为人爱敬」──为人喜悦，如挂在胸前的珠饰，如头饰及花鬘相似。

Ñ(IX,63): He is dear to human beings: he is as dear to and beloved by human beings as a necklace worn to hang on the chest, as a wreath adorning the head.
