2.43

爾時,世尊知尊者舍利子為諸苾芻如應說法已,佛即從其宴臥安詳而起,告尊者舍利子言:「善哉!善哉!舍利子!如汝所說,是佛所說;此法名為『大集法門』,後末世中,能與眾生,作大利益。於後末世,我諸苾芻修梵行者,應當於此大集法門,受持讀誦,宣通流布。又舍利子!後末世中,若人得此大集法門受持者,是人於未來諸佛法中,為淨信善男子,於佛教法,深生愛樂,廣大開曉,心大歡喜。」

At that time, the Bhagavat, knowing that the Venerable Śāriputra had finished expounding the Dharma to the bhikṣus as was fitting, calmly arose from his resting place and said to the Venerable Śāriputra, "Excellent! Excellent, Śāriputra! As you have spoken, so the Buddha has spoken. This Dharma is called the 'Sangīti-dharmaparyāya'; in the latter and final age, it will be able to bring great benefit to sentient beings. In the latter and final age, my bhikṣus who practice brahmacarya should receive, uphold, recite, expound, and disseminate this Sangīti-dharmaparyāya. Moreover, Śāriputra, in the latter and final age, if a person obtains and upholds this Sangīti-dharmaparyāya, that person, regarding the teachings of future Buddhas, will be a good man of pure faith, will generate deep love and delight in the Buddha's teaching, will become vastly enlightened, and will be filled with great joy in mind."
