「佛子!我說菩薩次第六入法門無量功德,如是六入法門,一切菩薩無不入者。我今此座有十四億人,不離本座入此六入法門。佛子!我本初得道時,在此樹間說十世界海法門,有九十億人亦入此六入明門。復至普光堂說十佛國土,有百萬億人入此六入明門。復至帝釋堂說十住,有五百萬人入此六入明門。復至焰寶堂說十行,有千萬人入此六入明。門復至第四天法光堂說十迴向,有十河沙人入此六入明門。復至第六摩尼堂說十地,有百萬河沙人入此六入明門。復至祇洹林說入法界品,有十二河沙人入此六入明門。今復至此第八會座,為十方無極大眾敬首菩薩一切眾說六入明門,一切大眾受持若一無二無別。」

"Buddha sons! I have spoken of the immeasurable merits of the bodhisattva's gradual six entries to the Dharma-gate. Such are the six entries to the Dharma-gate that there is no bodhisattva who does not enter them. In this assembly of mine now, there are one billion four hundred million people who, without leaving their original seats, enter these six entries to the Dharma-gate. Buddha sons! When I originally first attained the Way, among these trees I spoke of the Dharma-gate of the ocean of the ten world systems, and there were nine billion people who also entered these gates of illumination of the six entries. Again, proceeding to the Hall of Universal Light, I spoke of the ten Buddha lands, and there were one hundred trillion people who entered these gates of illumination of the six entries. Again, proceeding to the Hall of Śakra, I spoke of the ten abodes, and there were five million people who entered these gates of illumination of the six entries. Again, proceeding to the Hall of Blazing Jewels, I spoke of the ten practices, and there were tens of millions of people who entered these gates of illumination of the six entries. Again, proceeding to the Hall of Dharma Light in the fourth heaven, I spoke of the ten dedications, and there were people as numerous as the sands of ten Ganges Rivers who entered these gates of illumination of the six entries. Again, proceeding to the Sixth Mani Hall, I spoke of the ten grounds, and there were people as numerous as the sands of a million Ganges Rivers who entered these gates of illumination of the six entries. Again, proceeding to the Jetavana grove, I spoke the 'Chapter on Entering the Dharmadhātu', and there were people as numerous as the sands of twelve Ganges Rivers who entered these gates of illumination of the six entries. Now, again coming to this seat of the eighth assembly, for the boundless great assembly of the ten directions and all the congregation of Śraddhāpradāna Bodhisattva, I speak of the gates of illumination of the six entries; all the great assembly accepts and upholds them as one, without duality and without distinction."
