3.94

Regarding "the mark of merit": the sūtra goes from "Subhūti, what do you think? If a person filled a trichiliocosm with the seven treasures in order to practice generosity..." up to "...Subhūti, what is called Buddha-dharma is not Buddha-dharma." This means that by upholding and expounding this sūtra one obtains outflow-free merit, which brings about the sublime physical body; this is called the mark of merit. However, it is the mark of merit of the dharmakāya; the mark of merit is not the dharmakāya. This is a genitive compound (tatpuruṣa).
