3.33

解曰:一切所求者,此總標也。此中有七:一求官位,得榮位故。二求富饒,得福利故。三求男女,即皆得故。四求慧解,得世出世勝知見故。五行來者,求往來也,二足四足皆安隱故。六人中果報。七天中果報。此上皆由受持讀誦經之威力,所願滿足。如《寶雲經》云「譬如藥樹名曰善見,若有眾生得其根莖枝葉花菓,或見色嗅香、甞味得觸,於此十中隨其所得病皆除愈。」是故於經十法行中,隨其持讀世出世間願皆滿故。從此第二厄難解脫。

Commentary: "All that is sought" is a general indication. Here there are seven: 1. seeking official rank, because one attains glorious position; 2. seeking wealth, because one attains blessings and profit; 3. seeking sons and daughters, because one obtains them all; 4. seeking wisdom and understanding, because one attains superior mundane and supramundane knowledge and vision; 5. "traveling about" means seeking to go and come, because both two-footed and four-footed beings are safe and secure; 6. karmic rewards among humans; 7. karmic rewards among devas. All the above are due to the majestic power of receiving, upholding, reading, and reciting the sūtra, whereby one's wishes are fulfilled. As the Ratnamegha Sūtra says: "For example, there is a medicinal tree named Sudarśana. If sentient beings obtain its root, trunk, branches, leaves, flowers, or fruit, or see its color, smell its scent, taste its flavor, or touch it, then according to whichever of these ten they obtain, their illness is completely cured." Therefore, among the ten dharmic practices regarding the sūtra, according to one's upholding and reading, mundane and supramundane wishes are all fulfilled. From here, the second part explains liberation from distress and calamity.
