'Each individual Buddha and great assembly each expounded prajñā': third, explaining the inconceivable power capable of preaching the Dharma. Above, the separate listing of the twelve assemblies is finished. From 'the assemblies from other directions' onward, within the separate listing of the twelve assemblies, second, summarily concluding the amount of the assemblies. 'Assemblies from other directions' concludes the earlier second [group], the assemblies from other directions. 'And the emanated assemblies' concludes the earlier third [group], the emanated assemblies. 'Within these three realms' concludes the earlier first [group], the twelve assemblies of this realm. 'Twelve assemblies' summarily concludes the earlier three assemblies. 'Nine-kalpa lotus' means a nine-layered flower throne. 'Nine hundred and fifty li broad': just as the Dharma assembly in the Twin Grove was twelve yojanas and could contain a huge assembly, the present assembly was also like this: although narrow and restricted, it contained an immense number. 'The great assembly sat together peacefully' means they all sat to listen to the Dharma.
